Twenty-Eight Parallel Lines with a Transversal Problems

Parallel lines seem so right for each other. It's too bad they'll never, ever meet. Learners use tracing paper to discover relationships among angles formed by two parallel lines cut by a transversal. They apply this information to find...

Use the parallel lines to find your way. After first reviewing geometric constructions and the relationships between angles formed by parallel lines and a transversal, young mathematicians write proofs for theorems relating to parallel...

Perhaps planning a city isn't so difficult after all. Scholars first perform geometric constructions and investigate how parallel lines are useful in real-world situations. They then work on a city design project, drawing street maps,...

Viewers are presented with seven problems with parallel lines and angle relationships and must use the given information to find the measures of specific angles. To finish, they explain their process in finding the measures in the problems.

Concepts of alternate interior angles parallel the concepts of corresponding angles. Using a diagram, the presentation defines and identifies alternate interior angles formed by a transversal and two parallel lines. The video in a...

Work within a parallel universe. Scholars learn about the relationships of angles when two parallel lines are intersected by a transversal. They see how to find the measurements of all eight angles by knowing the measure of one angle....

Use an alternate approach to parallel lines. A resource in a comprehensive playlist on basic geometry develops the concept of alternate exterior angles and parallel lines. The presentation demonstrates how to identify alternate exterior...

Is it possible for a pair to be parallel and skew? The resource provides the class opportunities to find out by examining the properties of parallel and skew lines. Part of a playlist on basic geometry, the video includes a brief...

Is there a resource that parallels the video? Scholars view a short video to review the types of angle relationships that exist when a transversal cuts two parallel lines. They watch as the narrator solves several problems involving...

Students broaden their outlook on geometry in their everyday environment. They explore the properties of parallel lines and parallelograms and discover ways to prove the existence of parallel lines and discuss the concept of parallel lines.
