    Study Notes

    Parallel Lines

    • Parallel lines do not intersect at any point.
    • Key theorems apply when the lines are confirmed as parallel:
      • Same-Side Interior Angles Postulate: If lines are parallel, same-side interior angles are supplementary.
      • Alternate Interior Angles Theorem: If lines are parallel, alternate interior angles are congruent.
      • Corresponding Angles Theorem: If lines are parallel, corresponding angles are congruent.
      • Alternate Exterior Angles Theorem: If lines are parallel, alternate exterior angles are congruent.

    Proving Lines are Parallel

    • Specific theorems assist in proving that lines are parallel:
      • Converse of Same-Side Interior Angles Postulate: If same-side interior angles are supplementary, the lines are parallel.
      • Converse of Alternate Interior Angles Theorem: If alternate interior angles are congruent, the lines are parallel.
      • Converse of Corresponding Angles Theorem: If corresponding angles are congruent, the lines are parallel.
      • Converse of Alternate Exterior Angles Theorem: If alternate exterior angles are congruent, the lines are parallel.

    Triangle Angle-Sum Theorem

    • The sum of the three interior angles of a triangle equals 180 degrees.

    Triangle Exterior Angles Theorem

    • The exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the two remote interior angles.

    Slope Information

    • Slope Formula:
      • ( m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} )
    • Slope-Intercept Form:
      • ( y = mx + b )
    • Point-Slope Form: Equation not explicitly mentioned, but generally represented as ( y - y_1 = m(x - x_1) ).
