SECTION 3.3Angles Formed by

Transversals

LEARNING TARGETS:1. Students will be able to

identify corresponding angles, alternate interior angles, alternate exterior angles, and same-side interior angles.

VOCABULARY1. Transversal2. Correspondin

g Angles3. Alternate

Interior Angles

4. Alternate Exterior Angles

5. Same-Side Interior Angles

Today is a big vocabulary day! It is important that you take good notes so

that when we introduce new Theorems about these vocabulary words they will make sense.

NOTE:

TRANSVERSAL: A line that intersects two or more coplanar lines

at different points. For instance, in the diagram below, the blue line t

is a transversal.

The angles formed by two lines and a transversal have special names.

Vocabulary

As stated before, angles formed by two lines and a transversal have special names.

We will use the diagram below to help us identify all of the different types of angle pairs.

Angle Pairs

CORRESPONDING ANGLES: Angles that occupy corresponding

(matching) positions.

Vocabulary

ALTERNATE INTERIOR ANGLES: Angles that lie between (on the inside of)

the two lines and are on the opposite sides of the transversal.

Vocabulary

ALTERNATE EXTERIOR ANGLES: Angles that lie outside of the two lines

and are on the opposite sides of the transversal.

Vocabulary

SAME-SIDE INTERIOR ANGLES: Angles that lie between (on the inside of) the

two lines and are on the same side of the transversal.
