Angles in Parallel Lines

 

Students learn to recognise alternate, corresponding and interior angles in parallel lines.

Later, they use these properties to work out missing angles as learning progresses.

Angle Properties Foundation | Angle Geometry Higher

Differentiated Learning Objectives
  • All students should be able to recognise alternate and corresponding angles to be equal and interior angles to have a sum of 180 degrees.
  • Most students should be able to calculate unknown angles in parallel lines using an alternate, interior or corresponding property.
  • Some students should be able to calculate unknown angles in parallel lines using a combination of alternate, corresponding and interior angles.
