use geometric notation and distinguish congruence from similarity

Concept
  • Point, line, and plane are accepted undefined terms.
  • Order matters in ray and angle notation.
  • Congruent figures have equal size and shape; similar figures have proportional corresponding sides.

Model the Skill: use geometric notation and distinguish congruence from similarity

Interpret $\overleftrightarrow{AB}$, $\overrightarrow{AB}$, $\overline{AB}$, and $\angle ABC$.

  1. $\overleftrightarrow{AB}$ extends in both directions; $\overrightarrow{AB}$ starts at A.
  2. $\overline{AB}$ has endpoints A and B.
  3. In $\angle ABC$, B is the vertex.

Check and Diagnose: use geometric notation and distinguish congruence from similarity

Error analysis
  • Do not reverse ray endpoints.
  • Similarity does not imply equal side lengths.

measure, classify, and relate angles

Concept
  • Acute angles are below 90°, right angles equal 90°, obtuse angles lie between 90° and 180°, and straight angles equal 180°.
  • Vertical angles are congruent; a linear pair is supplementary.

Explain · 2.5 minSource: 9

Model the Skill: measure, classify, and relate angles

Two lines intersect and one angle is $47^\circ$. Find and classify the other three.

  1. The vertical angle is also $47^\circ$.
  2. Each adjacent angle is $180^\circ-47^\circ=133^\circ$.
  3. The pair is two acute vertical angles and two obtuse vertical angles.

You Try: measure, classify, and relate angles

Student practice

Two intersecting lines create an angle of 68°. Find the other three angles.

Check and Diagnose: measure, classify, and relate angles

Error analysis
  • Adjacent does not automatically mean supplementary.
  • Complementary means a sum of 90°, not equal measures.

use parallel-line relationships to solve angle equations

1

Corresponding, alternate interior, and alternate exterior angles are congruent.

2

Same-side interior angles are supplementary.

Explain · 2.5 minSource: 13

Model the Skill: use parallel-line relationships to solve angle equations

Corresponding angles measure $(3x+10)^\circ$ and $(5x-20)^\circ$. Solve.

  1. Corresponding angles are congruent, so $3x+10=5x-20$.
  2. $30=2x$, so $x=15$.
  3. Both angles measure $55^\circ$.
