Parallel Lines
Parallel lines are lines that lie in the same plane
and do not intersect.
When a line q intersects two parallel lines, q, is
called a transversal. Eight angles are now
formed.

One angle has measure
6x + 4 = 6(21) + 4 = 130
and the other has measure

Angle Sum of a Triangle
Take your given triangle.
Tear each corner from the triangle. (so you now have 3 pieces)
Rearrange the pieces so that the 3 pieces form a straight angle.
Convincing?!?
The sum of the measures of the angles of any
triangle is 180.

Angle Relationships and Similar
Triangles
Objective:
SWBAT use geometric properties to identify similar triangles
and angle relationships.
Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc.
Conditions for Similar Triangles
Similar Triangles are triangles of exactly the same
shape but not necessarily the same size.
Corresponding angles must have the same
measure.
Corresponding sides must be proportional.
(That is, their ratios must be equal.)


A lighthouse casts a
shadow 64 m long. At the
same time, the shadow
cast by a mailbox 3 feet
high is 4 m long. Find the
height of the lighthouse.
