Chapter 3



The main point of the lesson today was adding the vocabulary terms of Parallel Lines, Skew Lines, and Parallel Planes.


Parallel Lines for example are two lines that are on the same plane and do not meet or cross at any giving point.


Skew Lines are two lines that are not what so ever on the same plane and do not meet or cross each other at any given point.
Parallel Planes are planes that run along side one another but do not meet or cross at any given point or area

We also learned what a transversal is. A transversal is a line that intersects two or more co-planar lines.
Corresponding interior/exterior, Alternate interior/exterior, and Consecutive interior/exterior can be made up of these three lines.
For example:
9 and 15 are alternate exterior
6 and 13 are consecutive interior
4 and 6 are alternate interior
