Introduction

Read the key concept below before attempting the questions.
1.
In the F-pattern of corresponding angles, the angles are located in a specific 'F' shape formed by a transversal crossing two parallel lines. When angles follow this pattern, they are equal. Remember, the corresponding angles are in the same relative position on each of the intersections in the F-shaped arrangement.

Practice Questions

Answer all questions. Show your working in the grid spaces provided.
1.
Identify whether the angles labeled 1 and 2 are equal based on the F-pattern. Justify your answer.
[2 marks]
2.
Given two parallel lines cut by a transversal, angle A is 70°. What is the measure of the corresponding angle B?
[2 marks]
3.
In a diagram, angle 3 and angle 4 are in the F-pattern. If angle 3 measures 110°, find the measure of angle 4. Show your working.
[3 marks]
4.
Explain why students often confuse vertically opposite angles with corresponding angles in the F-pattern. Provide an example of a common misconception.
[3 marks]
5.
Construct a diagram showing two parallel lines cut by a transversal. Label the angles following the F-pattern and mark two that are equal. No calculation needed.
[3 marks]
6.
A student draws two lines claiming they are parallel and forms an F-pattern. However, they mark the wrong angles as equal. Identify the mistake and explain how to correct it.
[3 marks]
7.
Calculate the measure of an angle in a diagram where the corresponding angle in the F-pattern is 65°. Show your working.
[2 marks]
8.
Identify and fix the mistake in this statement: 'All angles in the F-pattern are always 90 degrees.'
[2 marks]
9.
A diagram shows a transversal cutting two parallel lines. If one of the angles in the F-pattern measures 120°, what is the measure of its alternate interior angle? Explain your reasoning.
[3 marks]
10.
Describe a real-world scenario where understanding the F-pattern of corresponding angles would be useful. Provide details of the situation.
[3 marks]
11.
Challenge: Given two parallel lines cut by a transversal, and an angle measuring 45° in the F-pattern, find the measures of all eight related angles. Sketch the diagram and show calculations.
