Lesson 1 Skills Practice

Lines For Exercises 1-12, use the figure at the right. In that figure, line m is parallel.

Classify each pair of angles as alternate interior, alternate exterior, or corresponding.

Pictures Below.

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

• alternate interior: (2, 4), (3, 5)
• alternate exterior: (1, 7), (43°, 6)
• corresponding: (1, 5), (2, 6), (3, 7), alternate interior: (2, 4), (3, 5)

corresponding: (1, 5), (2, 6), (3, 7), (43°, 4)4)

Explanation:

In this geometry, "corresponding" angles are in the same direction from the point of intersection of the transversal with the parallel line.

"Alternate" refers to angles on opposite sides of the transversal. "Interior" and "exterior" refer to angles between and outside of the parallel lines, respectively.

Here, we list all angle pairs in each classification, so you can answer questions 1-12 based on this list.

alternate interior: (2, 4), (3, 5)

alternate exterior: (1, 7), (43°, 6)

corresponding: (1, 5), (2, 6), (3, 7), (43°, 4)

Additional classifications are also used:

consecutive (same-side) interior: (2, 5), (3, 4)

consecutive (same-side) exterior: (1, 6), (43°, 7)

vertical: (1, 3), (2, 43°), (4, 6), (5, 7)

linear pairs: (1, 2), (1, 43°), (2, 3), (3, 43°), (4, 5), (4, 7), (5, 6), (6, 7)
