Introduction

Review the properties of angles formed when a transversal cuts parallel lines. Remember, corresponding angles are equal, alternate angles are equal, and co-interior angles are supplementary.

Practice Questions

Answer all questions. Show your working in the grid spaces provided.
1.
In the diagram, lines l and m are parallel and cut by a transversal. If the angle at point P is 65°, find the corresponding angle at point Q.

2.
Calculate the value of the alternate interior angle when one of the angles is 110° with parallel lines cut by a transversal.

3.
If a co-interior angle is 120°, what is the measure of its supplementary angle?

5.
Given that one angle is 75°, find the measure of the angle vertically opposite to it.

6.
On a diagram, lines p and q are parallel, cut by a transversal. If the corresponding angle at one intersection measures 85°, what is the measure of the alternate interior angle at the other intersection?
[2 marks]
7.
Two angles are supplementary and one measures 130°. Find the other angle.
[2 marks]
8.
In the diagram, angle A is 40°, and lines are parallel. Find the measure of the corresponding angle at the same intersection.
[2 marks]
9.
If the exterior angle of a parallel line and transversal setup is 95°, what is the measure of its corresponding interior angle?
[2 marks]
10.
A transversal cuts two parallel lines, creating an angle of 70° at one intersection. What is the measure of the alternate interior angle at the other intersection?
[2 marks]
11.
Challenge: A real-world scenario involves two roads crossing at an intersection where the angles formed are known. If the angle of one turn is 55°, what are the measures of the corresponding and alternate interior angles at the crossing, assuming the roads are parallel?

12.
Bonus: In a park layout, a pathway crosses two parallel fences, forming multiple angles. If one of the angles where the pathway meets the fence is 60°, determine all angles related to it that are equal or supplementary, explaining your reasoning.
