Activity

Parallel Lines

Three parallel lines. One is labelled A. One is labelled with B. There is a point on line B labelled with a K. The third line is labelled H.

Use a piece of tracing paper to trace lines and and point . Then use that tracing paper to draw the images of the lines under the three different transformations listed.

As you perform each transformation, think about the question:

What is the image of two parallel lines under a rigid transformation?

Translate lines and 3 units up and 2 units to the right.
1. What do you notice about the changes that occur to lines and after the translation?
2. What is the same in the original and the image?
Rotate lines and counterclockwise using as the center of rotation.

Student Lesson Summary

Rigid transformations have the following properties:

A rigid transformation of a line is a line.
A rigid transformation of two parallel lines results in two parallel lines that are the same distance apart as the original two lines.
Sometimes, a rigid transformation takes a line to itself. For example:

A line, labelled M. Points A, B, F, B prime and A prime are labelled on the line. A line of reflection intersects the line at point F and is perpendicular to the line M.
- A translation parallel to the line. The arrow shows a translation of line that will take to itself.
- A rotation by around any point on the line. A rotation of line around point will take to itself.
- A reflection across any line perpendicular to the line. A reflection of line across the dashed line will take to itself.

These facts let us make an important conclusion.

If two lines intersect at a point, which we’ll call , then a rotation of the lines with center shows that vertical angles are congruent. Here is an example:

Rotating both lines by around sends angle to angle , therefore proving that they have the same measure. The rotation also sends angle to angle .

A pair of lines that intersect at point O. Two pairs of congruent vertical angles are labelled.

Glossary

vertical angles

Vertical angles are opposite angles that share the same vertex. They are formed when two lines cross each other. Their angle measures are equal.

Angles and are vertical angles. If angle measures , then angle must also measure .

Angles and are another pair of vertical angles.

a pair of intersecting lines that create vertical angles.
