Review : If two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then corresponding angles are congruent. If two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then alternate interior angles are congruent. If two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then alternate exterior angles are congruent. If two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then same side interior angles are supplementary. To use any of these reasons in a proof, you must have already stated that you have parallel lines.

Recap – 5 Ways to Prove Lines are Parallel 1. If two lines are cut by a transversal and CORRESPONDING ANGLES ARE CONGRUENT, then lines are parallel. 2. If two lines are cut by a transversal and ALTERNATE INTERIOR/EXTERIOR ANGLES ARE CONGRUENT, then the lines are parallel. 3. If two lines are cut by a transversal and SAME SIDE INTERIOR/EXTERIOR ANGLES ARE SUPPLEMENTARY then the lines are parallel. 4. If two lines are PERPENDICULAR TO A THIRD LINE, then the lines are parallel. 5. If two lines are PARALLEL TO A THIRD LINE, then the lines are parallel.
