Math Grade 8 Quiz Angles in Triangles and Transversals – 8.G.A.5
Angles play a fundamental role in geometry, particularly in the study of triangles and parallel lines cut by a transversal. The sum of the angles in any triangle always equals 180°. When parallel lines are intersected by a transversal, special pairs of angles are formed, such as corresponding angles, alternate interior angles, and same-side interior angles, which have specific relationships. Furthermore, the angle-angle criterion dictates that if two angles of one triangle are congruent to two angles of another triangle, the triangles are similar. Recognizing these angle relationships aids in problem solving and understanding the properties of geometric figures.
