  • Topic:Parallel and Perpendicular Lines
  • Subject(s):Math
  • Days:15
  • Grade(s):9, 10, 11, 12
Key Learning: The intersection(s)of lines produce several angle pair relationships. The sum of the measures of the interior angles of a triangle is 180 degrees and the sum of the measures of the interior angles of a convex polygon is determined by the number of sides.
Unit Essential Question(s):
 
 
What relationships exist between the angles formed by parallel lines and a transversal? Why is the sum of the measures of the interior angles of a triangle 180 degrees and how will this be used to develop other rules?
   
Concept: Properties of Parallel Lines
Concept: Proving Lines Parallel
Concept: Classification of Triangles
