• A transversal is a
straight line that
intersects two or more
straight lines.
• To identify corresponding
angles, look for angles
formed by lines that
resemble the letter 'F'.
Alternate Angles
• To identify alternate
angles, look for angles
formed by lines that
resemble the letter 'Z'.
Interior Angles
• Interior angles are angles
between parallel lines on the
same side of transversal.
CORRESPONDING Solution:
ANGLES 2x = 130 degrees
Hence,
In the following diagram, BCD and ACE
are straight lines. Find the value of x.
EXAMPLE 2
Solution:
ALTERNATE ANGLES <AED = <BAE = 63 degrees
<BCE is the exterior angle for triangle
CDE.
Hence,
EXAMPLE 3
Find the value of x in the diagram
INTERIOR ANGLES above.
Solution:
<PQR + 117 degrees = 180 degrees

POLYGONS II
Polygons
EXAMPLE 1
Find the value of x.
Solution:
The sum of exterior angle = 360 degrees
The diagram shows an irregular polygon.
EXAMPLE 2 Solution:
Given a polygon with 6 sides, so n = 6.
The sum of interior angles
Hence,
EXAMPLE 3
The diagram below shows a part of a regular polygon.
• The diameter of a circle is a chord that passes through the centre of a circle.
• The diameter of a circle divides the circle into two equal parts.
Hence,
