Angle Relationships in Parallel Lines
Learning Objective
I can find the measures of angles formed by parallel lines and a transversal when given the measure of one angle.
Practice Questions
This lesson includes 2 practice questions to reinforce learning.

1. Two parallel lines are intersected by a transversal. One of the angles formed is 65°. Explain how you can find the measure of all the other angles formed by the parallel lines and the transversal. List the measures of all 8 angles.
2. Imagine a street map where two streets run parallel to each other. A crosswalk cuts across both streets at an angle. If the angle between the crosswalk and one street is 115°, what is the angle between the crosswalk and the other street on the same side of the crosswalk? Explain your reasoning using angle relationships.
