Pairs of Angles

formed by Parallel
lines and transversal
Objectives:

At the end of the lesson, the students will be

able to:
 Identify and define transversal

 Identify and name angles formed by parallel

lines and transversal.
Transversal
 Is a line that intersects two coplanar lines at two
different points. The transversal p and the other
lines m and n form eight angles.

Corresponding Angles
 Lie on the same side of the transversal p, on the
same sides of lines m and n
