 INTRODUCTION

This module is written in support of the K to 12 Basic Education Program to ensure

attainment of standards expected of you as a learner.
This aims to equip you with essential knowledge on the Angles Formed by Parallel
Lines Cut by a Transversal.
This includes the following activities/tasks:
 Expected Learning Outcome – This lays out the learning outcome that you are
expected to have accomplished at the end of the module.
 Pre-test – This determines your prior learning on the particular lesson you are about to
take.
 Discussion of the Lesson – This provides you with the application of the knowledge,
principles and attitude that will help you meet the expected learning outcome.
 Learning Activities – These provide you with the application of the knowledge and
principles you have gained from the lesson and enable you to further enhance your
skills as you carry out prescribed tasks.
 Post-test – This evaluates your overall understanding about the module.

 Transversal line – is a line that intersects two or more coplanar lines at different
points.

Line n is a transversal line.

If parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then eight angles and pair of angles are formed.

In the figure, l ∥ m and line n is a transversal.

1 2
l
4 3

5 6
m
7 8

Interior angles are the four angles formed between the lines l and m.
In the figure these are ∠ 4 , ∠ 3 , ∠ 5 ,∧∠ 6.

Exterior angles are the four angles formed that lie outside the lines l and m.
These are:∠ 1 ,∠ 2, ∠ 7 ,∧∠ 8

Alternate interior angles are two interior angles that lie on opposite sides of a transversal.
The angle pairs ∠ 4∧∠ 6 ;∠ 5∧∠6 are alternate interior angles.

Page 8 of 17
Alternate exterior angles are two exterior angles that lie on opposite sides of the transversal.
The angle pairs ∠ 1∧∠ 8; ∠ 2∧∠ 7 are alternate exterior angles.

Corresponding angles are two angles, one interior and the other exterior, on the same side of
the transversal.
The pairs of corresponding angles are ∠ 1∧∠5 ; ∠ 4∧∠7 ; ∠ 2∧∠ 6 ;
∠ 3∧∠ 8.

Example 1:

Page 10 of 17
Example 2: z

1. If lines x and y are parallel and z is a transversal, what can you say about
a) any pair of angles that are boxed?
The pair of angles that are boxed are all congruent.
b) one boxed and one unboxed angle?
The one boxed and one unboxed angles are supplementary.

2. If ∠ B=(2 m−20)° and ∠C=(130−m)° , what is the value of m?

Solution:
∠ B=∠ C

Page 11 of 17
 (2 m−20)° =(130−m)°
2 m+ m=130+20
3 m=150
m=50 °
3. Using the same figure, if measure of ∠ A=6 y – 15 and measure∠ H=8 y−65,
a. What is y?
b. What is the measure of ∠C and ∠F?
Solution:
a. ∠ A and ∠ H is a pair of alternate exterior angle.
∠ A=∠ H
To find y , substitute the measure of ∠ A which 6 y – 15 and the measure
of ∠ H which is 8 y – 65 .
6 y – 15=8 y – 65
6 y−8 y=−65+15
−2 y=−50
−50
y=
−2
y=25
∠ A=6 ( 25 ) – 15 ∠ H=8 (25)−65
¿ 135 °=135 °
b. ∠C is supplementary to ∠A, therefore ∠ C=45 °
∠F is congruent to ∠C, therefore∠ F=45 °

What’s More
Directions: Determine the measures of the angles marked with letters. Lines with arrowheads
are parallel. (Note: Figures are not drawn to scale.)
