Study Notes
Line Relationships
- Parallel Lines: Coplanar lines that never intersect.
- Skew Lines: Lines that do not intersect and are not in the same plane.
- Parallel Planes: Planes that do not intersect each other.
- Transversal: A line that crosses two or more lines in a plane at different points.
Angles Formed by Transversals
- Interior Angles: Angles formed between two transversals intersecting the same line.
- Exterior Angles: Angles formed by one side of a triangle and the extension of the other side.
- Consecutive Interior Angles: Interior angles located on the same side of a transversal.
- Alternate Interior Angles: Nonadjacent interior angles positioned on opposite sides of a transversal.
- Alternate Exterior Angles: Nonadjacent exterior angles positioned on opposite sides of a transversal.
- Corresponding Angles: Angles on the same side of a transversal and in corresponding positions concerning the intersected lines.
Theorems and Postulates
- Corresponding Angles Postulate: States that if two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, the corresponding angles formed are congruent.
- Alternate Interior Angles Theorem: States that if two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, the alternate interior angles are congruent.
- Consecutive Interior Angles Theorem: If two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, the consecutive interior angles are supplementary.
- Alternate Exterior Angles Theorem: If two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, the alternate exterior angles are congruent.
- Perpendicular Transversal Theorem: If a line is perpendicular to one of two parallel lines, it is also perpendicular to the other.
Slopes
- Slope: The ratio of the vertical change (y-axis) to the horizontal change (x-axis) between two points on a line.
- Rate of Change: Indicates how a quantity changes over time.
- Slopes of Parallel Lines Postulate: Nonvertical lines that are parallel have identical slopes; vertical lines are also parallel.
- Slopes of Perpendicular Lines Postulate: Two nonvertical lines are perpendicular if the product of their slopes equals -1, and vertical and horizontal lines are perpendicular.
Line Equations
- Slope-Intercept Formula: Expresses the relationship between y and x in the form (y = mx + b).
- Point-Slope Formula: Describes a linear equation using a given point ((x_1, y_1)) in the form (y - y_1 = m (x - x_1)).
- Standard Form: Linear equation represented as (ax + by = c).
Converse Statements
- Converse of Corresponding Angles Postulate: If corresponding angles are congruent, then the lines are parallel.
- Parallel Postulate: Through a given point not on a line, there exists exactly one line parallel to the given line.
- Alternate Exterior Angles Converse: If alternate exterior angles are congruent, then the lines are parallel.
- Consecutive Interior Angles Converse: If consecutive interior angles are supplementary, then the lines are parallel.
- Alternate Interior Angles Converse: If alternate interior angles are congruent, then the lines are parallel.
- Perpendicular Transversal Converse: If two lines are perpendicular to the same line, then they are parallel.
Distance and Equidistance
- Equidistant Lines: The distance measured along a perpendicular line between two lines is constant.
- Two Lines Equidistant from a Third: If two lines maintain a constant distance from a third line, then those two lines are parallel.
