Let's say that we have
two parallel lines.
-
So that's one line
right over there,
-
and then this is
the other line that
-
is parallel to the first one.
-
I'll draw it as
parallel as I can.
-
So these two lines are parallel.
-
This is the symbol
right over here
-
to show that these two
lines are parallel.
-
And then let me draw
a transversal here.
-
So let me draw a transversal.
-
This is also a line.
-
Now, let's say that we know
that this angle right over here
-
is 110 degrees.
-
What other angles can
we figure out here?
-
Well, the first thing
that we might realize
-
is that, look, corresponding
angles are equivalent.
-
This angle, the angle
between this parallel line
-
and the transversal,
is going to be
-
the same as the angle
between this parallel line
-
and the transversal.
-
So this right over here is
also going to be 110 degrees.
-
Now, we also know that
vertical angles are equivalent.
-
So if this is 110
degrees, then this angle
-
right over here on the opposite
side of the intersection
-
is also going to be 110 degrees.
-
And we could use that
same logic right over here
-
to say that if this
is 110 degrees,
-
then this is also 110 degrees.
-
We could've also
said that, look,
-
this angle right over here
corresponds to this angle
-
right over here so that they
also will have to be the same.
-
Now, what about
these other angles?
-
So this angle right over
here, its outside ray,
-
I guess you could
say, forms a line
-
with this angle right over here.
-
This pink angle is supplementary
to this 110 degree angle.
-
So this pink angle plus 110
is going to be equal to 180.
-
Or we know that this pink angle
is going to be 70 degrees.
-
And then we know that it's a
vertical angle with this angle
-
right over here, so
this is also 70 degrees.
-
This angle that's kind of
right below this parallel line
-
with the transversal, the bottom
left, I guess you could say,
-
corresponds to this bottom
left angle right over here.
-
So this is also 70 degrees.
-
And we could've also
figured that out by saying,
-
hey, this angle is supplementary
to this angle right over here.
-
And then we could use
multiple arguments.
-
The vertical angle argument,
the supplementary argument two
-
ways, or the corresponding
angle argument to say that,
-
hey, this must be
70 degrees as well.
