Term
Theorems to prove parallel lines are congruent
Definition
Theorem 30: The measure of a triangle is greater than the measure of either remote interior angle
Theorem 31: if 2 alternate interior angles are congruent the lines are parallel
Theorem 32: If 2 alternate exterior angles are congruent the lines are parallel
Theorem 33: If 2 corresponding angles are congruent, the lines are parallel
Theorem 34: If 2 lines are cut by a transversal such that 2 interior angles on the same side of the transversal are supplementary, the lines are parallel
Theorem 35: If 2 lines are cut by a transversal such that 2 exterior angles on the same side of the transversal are supplementary, the lines are parallel
Theorem 36: If 2 coplanar lines are perpindicular to a 3rd line, they are parallel
Term
Parallel Postulate
Definition
Through a point not on a line there is exactly one parallel to the given line
Term
Other theorems
Definition
Theorem 37: If parallel lines, alternate interior angles are congruent
Theorem 38: If 2 parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then any pair of the angles formed are either congruent or supplementary
Term
Six theorems about parallel lines
Definition
Theorem 39: if parallel lines, alternate exterior angles are congruent
Theorem 40: if parallel lines, corresponding angles are congruent
Theorem 41: If 2 parallel lines are cut by a transversal, each apir of interior angles on the same side of the transversal are supplementary
Theorem 42: if 2 parallel lines are cut by a transversal, each pair of exterior angles on the same side of the transversal are supplementary
Theorem 43: in a plane, if a line is perpindicular to 1 of 2 lines, it is perpindicular to the other
Theorem 44: if 2 lines are parallel to a 3rd line, they are parallel to each other (transitive property of parallel lines)
