carlos constructed 3 parallel lines as part of an art project. he also drew a line line passing through each of the parallel lines. some of the angles formed by the intersection of line T and lines L, M, & N are numbered, which conjecture can carlos make about the angles formed by line T and lines L,M,N?
|dw:1388709147642:dw|
the passing lines are L,M,N
angle 1 = angle 3 = angle 5 angle 2 = angle 4 = angle 6 http://www.mathopenref.com/anglescorresponding.html angle 1 + angle 2 = 180 angle 3 + angle 4 = 180 angle 5 + angle 6 = 180 by definition of linear angles
but its asking what conjecture can he use about the angles?
Corresponding angles conjecture? If the transversal cuts across parallel lines (the usual case) then corresponding angles have the same measure. http://www.mathopenref.com/anglescorresponding.html
so angles 1, 3, & 5 are congruent
yep :)
thanxx I wish I knew you ... omgg Nm you might think im weird now lmaoo
lol it's fine :) glad I could help :D
if you need more help, you can tag me in a question by putting an @ in front of my username :) like @woah_its_sarah
kay kay thankxx lol <3
