Teach it
Where it is taught, with guided notes, practice, homework, an exit ticket and an interactive Teacher Deck.
Examples
- If one corresponding angle is 110°, the other is also 110°.
- They sit in the same position at each crossing, like top-right and top-right.
Key rule
Parallel lines make corresponding angles equal.
Memory hook
Same position, each intersection, equal angles.
