Class – IX

Lesson Plan
Topic: LINES AND ANGLES

Brief Description of the lesson:

In this lesson, learners will revise basic geometrical terms and definitions. They will also
learn about the linear pair axiom. The learners will recall knowledge about the different types
of angles and the angles formed by a transversal on a pair of parallel and intersecting lines.
Moreover, they will be taught to prove theorems related to lines, angles and triangles.

and ‘parallel lines’ (K)
2. Describe the different types of angles (K)
3. Explain the terms ‘adjacent angles’, ‘linear pair of angles’, ‘complementary angles’,
supplementary angles’ and ‘vertically opposite angles’ (K)
4. Prove that vertically opposite angles are equal (U)
5. Describe the angles formed by a transversal (U)
6. Explain the corresponding angles axiom (U)
7. Prove that if a transversal intersects two parallel lines, then each pair of alternate
interior angles is equal (U)
8. Prove that if a transversal intersects two parallel lines, then each pair of interior angles
on the same side of the transversal is supplementary (U)
9. Prove that the lines which are parallel to the same line are parallel to each other (U)
10. Prove that the sum of three angles of a triangle is 1800 (U)

II - Behavioral Objectives

1. Students apply the concept of lines and angle in various sports like basketball, javelin
throw etc.
2. Students also use the concept in various designs for their activities
3. Engineers and architects apply the properties of lines and angles while making
designs or blueprints for buildings’

SOLO -Taxonomy
Prestructural – They all know about the concept of vertically opposite angles, linear pair
of angles, Adjacent angles
Unistructural – This activity will be helpful to them to understand the different types of
angles when a transversal meets two parallel lines.
Multistructural – By rotating the strip they will be able to find the angle by different
positions of the strips and justify the property different types of angles.
Relational – When they will understand the concept it will be clear to them how all these
different types of angles are related.
Extended Abstract –
1. As the concept of Lines and Angles is important in all geometrical chapters, so they
will be able to use these concepts in other chapters of this class as well as in other
classes.
2. An application of the concept we see in constructing many things in real life.
3. Also this concept if also useful for designing the blueprint.
