Lines and Angles Exploration

What are the different types of lines in geometry?

• Circular Lines

• Diagonal Lines

• Straight Lines, Curved Lines, Parallel Lines, Perpendicular Lines, Intersecting Lines, Transversal Lines.

• Segmented Lines

Define parallel lines and give an example.

• The opposite sides of a rectangle.

• The sides of a triangle.

• The corners of a square.

• The edges of a cube.

What is the relationship between complementary angles?

• The sum of their measures is 90 degrees.

• The sum of their measures is 180 degrees.

• They are always equal in measure.

• Their measures can be any positive angles.

Explain the concept of supplementary angles with an example.

• Supplementary angles are always adjacent to each other.

• Supplementary angles are two angles that sum to 180 degrees.

• Supplementary angles are angles that are equal in measure.

• Supplementary angles are two angles that sum to 90 degrees.

What are the characteristics of intersecting lines?

• They never meet.

• They meet at a single point.

• They are always parallel.

• They form a triangle.

What is the definition of a transversal line?

• A line that intersects two or more lines at different points.

• A line that is parallel to another line.

• A line that is perpendicular to another line.

• A line that forms a right angle with another line.

How do you identify vertical angles?

• They are adjacent angles.

• They are formed by two intersecting lines and are opposite each other.

• They are angles that sum to 90 degrees.

• They are angles that are equal in measure.
