What's on the worksheet

  1. Say how many lines through P miss a line in each setting and which claim fails.
  2. Find which angle placements force parallel lines at a transversal.
  3. Find x and the angles on the right of a transversal and decide on which side the lines meet.
  4. Check four students' equations for the line through P parallel to a given line.
  5. Look at a triangle on a globe with right angles at the equator.
  6. Write a paragraph proof that A, B and C lie on one line, then compare with the disc model.
