Lesson 3-2:
Proving Lines Parallel
Teacher: Ms. Olifer
What are we learning?
SWBAT:
use a transversal and prove lines are
parallel.

Postulate 3-2: Converse (Opposite) of Corresponding Angles
Postulate: If two lines and a transversal form corresponding angles
that are congruent, then the two lines are parallel.
l || m
OR: If corresponding angles are congruent, then the lines are
parallel.
Proving Lines Parallel
We know these
two lines are
parallel!!
If Alternate Interior Angles are congruent we
can assume lines are parallel too!

Theorem 3-5: Converse of Alternate Interior Angles Theorem
If two lines and a transversal form alternate interior angles that are
congruent, then the two lines are parallel.
If 1  2, then l || m.
OR: If alternate interior angles are congruent, then the lines are
parallel.

Theorem 3-6: Converse of Same-Side Interior Angles Theorem
If two lines and a transversal form same-side interior angles that are
supplementary, then the two lines are parallel.
If 2 and 4 are supplementary, t henl || m.
OR: If same side interior angles add up to 180 degrees, then the lines are parallel.

If Alternate Exterior Angles are congruent, we
can assume lines are parallel!!!

Theorem 3-7: Converse of Alternate Exterior Angles Theorem
If two lines and a transversal intersects form alternate exterior
angles that are congruent, then the two lines are parallel.
If 1  2, t hena || b.
OR: If alternate exterior angles are congruent, then the lines are parallel.

Theorem 3-8: Converse of Same-Side Exterior Angles Theorem
If two lines and a transversal intersects form same-side exterior
angles that are supplementary, then the two lines are parallel.
If 1 and 3 are supplementary, then a ||b.
OR: If same-side exterior angles add up to 180 degrees, then the
lines are parallel.
