Two parallel lines and alternate interior angles. Can you identify an alternate interior angle to angle 1 given that you have parallel lines?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no ._.

OpenStudy (luffingsails):

Do you know what it means to be alternate interior? Just trying to find out how much to explain.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The pairs of angles on opposite sides of the transversal but inside the two lines

OpenStudy (luffingsails):

Right! Perfect. Okay, so imagine that line segment continued in both directions. Now look at angle 1 and angle 4. Aren't they alternate interior?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohh. yes!

OpenStudy (luffingsails):

<nodding> Perfect. So, now you have your answer. m<1 = m<4.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thankyou so much for explaining c:

Three copies of a triangle were rotated and positioned as shown. Which statement is always true about the angles in the figure?

OpenStudy (luffingsails):

What are your statements?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A. All the angles of the triangle are obtuse. B. The measures of the angles of the triangles are equal. C. m∠a + m∠b = m∠c D. m∠a + m∠b + m∠c = 180°

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think its D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you see it?

OpenStudy (luffingsails):

Yes, looking now. Thanks.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay, :D

OpenStudy (luffingsails):

Well, one thing we know for sure is that the interior angles of a triangle always equal 180 degrees. There D.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yayyy i got it :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thankyou again

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2 more and thats it i promise :3
