4) If lines l and k are extended and they never intersect,
what can we say about l and k ?
l || k
5) If lines l and k are extended and they do intersect,
what can we say about l and k ?
l is not || k

two different points.

Theorem #11:

k
Two lines cut by a transversal are parallel if a pair of
corresponding angles are congruent. Ex: If 8  6, then m || k.
Theorem #12:
Two lines cut by a transversal are parallel if a pair of alternate
interior angles are congruent. Ex: If 2  7, then m || k .
Theorem #13:
Two lines cut by a transversal are parallel if a pair of interior
angles on the same side of the transversal are supplementary.
Ex: If m2  m3  180, then m || k .
Theorem #14:
Two lines perpendicular to the same line are parallel.
Ex: If m  l and k  l , then m || k .

A and B are interior angles
on the same side of transversal.
mA  mB ? 180
mA  mB  100  3x  80  3x
mA  mB  180 
Since A and B are supplementary, AD || BC.
