Students explore the relationships of angles formed when two parallel or non-parallel lines are cut by a transversal. This activity investigates the terms: Transversal, corresponding angles, alternate interior angles, alternate exterior...

Students can use a map of Washington, DC, to travel to/from different tourist locations using vertical angles, corresponding angles, alternate interior angles, alternate exterior angles, same-side interior angles, and linear pairs.

This site offers a brief description of alternate interior angles, followed by an explanatory diagram.

[Free Registration/Login Required] Students explore the concept of alternate interior angles by navigating through the interactive learning module and then answering questions that go along with the module. Students can also learn more...

Intermath Dictionary's site defines terms relating to angles, gives examples, and offers interactive exercises.

Eighth graders are presented with a labeled drawing of two parallel lines intersected by a transversal line. They are asked to discuss congruency of angles when the picture is rotated about a point on the transversal. Aligns with 8.G.A.5.

This site gives a decription of interior angles along with a visual representation. Be sure to use the links to related terms, everyday examples, challenging problems, more information, and the interactive check point involving interior...

Use the alternate segment rule for cirlces to determine the angle measures.

Try these three problems about finding the measures of different angles that arise from diagrams involving parallel lines and transversals. Detailed solutions are written out for these three problems of moderate difficulty.

In this task, 8th graders are presented with a drawing of two parallel lines connected through two line segments. They are given the measures of two angles and are asked to find a third. Aligns with 8.G.A.5.

This tutorial provides a definition of corresponding angles and additional information is provided on angles.
