The framework of a wooden roller coaster is composed of millions of feet of intersecting lumber that often form parallel lines and transversals. Roller coaster designers, construction managers, and carpenters must know the relationships of angles created by parallel lines and their transversals to create a safe and stable ride. You will find how measures of angles are used in carpentry and construction in Lesson 3-2. 124 Chapter 3 Parallel and Perpendicular Lines Richard Cummins/CORBIS Prerequisite Skills To be successful in this chapter, you’ll need to master these skills and be able to apply them in problem-solving situations.

Chapter 3 Parallel and Perpendicular Lines 125 Parallel Lines and Transversals • Identify the relationships between two lines or two planes. ᐉ • Name angles formed by a pair of lines and a m Vocabulary transversal. • parallel lines are parallel lines and planes • parallel planes used in architecture? • skew lines • transversal Architect Frank Lloyd Wright designed • consecutive interior many buildings using basic shapes, lines, angles and planes. His building at the right has • alternate exterior angles several examples of parallel lines, parallel • alternate interior angles planes, and skew lines. • corresponding angles RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN LINES AND PLANES Lines ᐉ and m are coplanar because they lie in the same plane. If the lines were extended indefinitely, Study Tip they would not intersect. Coplanar lines that do not intersect are called parallel lines. Segments and rays contained within parallel lines are also parallel. Reading Math The term parallel and the The symbol means is parallel to. Arrows are P Q notation are used for used in diagrams to indicate that lines are parallel. lines, segments, rays, and In the figure, the arrows indicate that PQ is planes. The symbol ͞ parallel to RS. RS means is not parallel to. Similarly, two planes can intersect or be parallel. PQϭ RS In the photograph above, the roofs of each level are contained in parallel planes. The walls and the floor of each level lie in intersecting planes. Draw a Rectangular Prism A rectangular prism can be drawn using parallel lines and parallel planes.

Identify all segments parallel to BෆFෆ. 126 Chapter 3 Parallel and Perpendicular Lines Robert Holmes/CORBIS Notice that in the Geometry Activity, AෆEෆ and GෆFෆ do not intersect. These segments are not parallel since they do not lie in the same plane. Lines that do not intersect and are not coplanar are called skew lines. Segments and rays contained in skew lines are also skew. Example 1 Identify Relationships G a. Name all planes that are parallel to F plane ABG. plane CDE B A Study Tip b.

A line that intersects two or more lines in Study Tip a plane at different points is called a Transversals transversal. n The lines that the transversal intersects need not be parallel.
