Geometry, Teacher\'s Edition

(Axel Boer) #1

  • Identify angles formed by two parallel lines and a non- perpendicular transversal.

  • Identify and use the Corresponding Angles Postulate.

  • Identify and use the Alternate Interior Angles Theorem.

  • Identify and use the Alternate Exterior Angles Theorem.

  • Identify and use the Consecutive Interior Angles Theorem.


II.Cross-curricular-TubeMapinLondon



  • Use the following image from Wikipedia. This is Figure 03.02.01.

  • http://www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Tube_map_thumbnail.png

  • Be sure that each student has a copy of the map.

  • Students are going to use this map to find an example of each of the postulates/theorems in this lesson.



    1. Corresponding Angles Postulate





    1. Alternate Interior Angles Theorem





    1. Alternative Exterior Angles Theorem





    1. Consecutive Interior Angles Theorem



  • Students will need to prove that each example in the map is accurate.

  • Have them use a protractor to measure and provide a list of statements and proof for each postulate/theorem.

  • Then allow time for students to share their work.


III.TechnologyIntegration-TransportationSearch



  • Have students use this map of the Tube and compare it with the map of the subway in NYC and the map of
    the ā€œLā€ in Chicago.

  • Compare and contrast each map and the use of angles, parallel lines and transversals.

  • Have students write a few concluding statements to describe each in mathematical terms.

  • Then allow time for students to share their work.


IV.NotesonAssessment



  • Collect student tube maps and statements.

  • Did the students justify each theorem/postulate correctly and accurately?

  • Did they use angle measures in their justifications?

  • Provide students with feedback/correction when needed.


Proving Lines Parallel


I.SectionObjectives



  • Identify and use the Converse of the Corresponding Angles Postulate.

  • Identify and use the Converse of Alternate Exterior Angles Theorem.

  • Identify and use the Converse of Consecutive Interior Angles Theorem.

  • Identify and use the Parallel Lines Property.


II.Cross-curricular-WashingtonDC



  • Use the following map of the mall in Washington DC.

  • This is Figure 03.03.01
