In our last class we started chapter 2. We learned about identifying relationships among the measures of angles formed by intersecting line. We learned about transversall lines which is a line that intersects two or more other lines at distinct points. We learned about exterior angles which is the angle that is formed by a side of a polygon and the extension of an adjacent side. We learned about interior angles which are any angles formed by a transversal and two parallel lines that lie inside the parallel lines. We learned about corresponding angles which is one interior angle and one exterior angle that are a non-adjacent and on the same side of the transveral. Converse is a statement that is formed by switching the premise and the conclusion of another statement. A key summary to follow is when a transversal intersects a pair of parallel lines, the corresponding angles that are formed by each parallel line and the transversal are equal. things you need to know is when a transversal intersects a pair of non-parallel lines, the corresponding angles are not equal. There are also other relationships among the measure of the eight angles formed when a transversal intersects two parallel lines. To do all of this you will need some materials such as a dynamic gemoetric software or a ruler and protractor.
Our class did a hand out assignment on this and then we went over all the answers as a class and i believe it went very well because our class is very smart.
Next will be michelle :)
