Define and identify corresponding angles in parallel line diagrams. Review vertical, supplementary, and complementary angle relationships.
The core standards covered in this lesson
8.G.A.2 — Understand that a two-dimensional figure is congruent to another if the second can be obtained from the first by a sequence of rotations, reflections, and translations; given two congruent figures, describe a sequence that exhibits the congruence between them.
8.G.A.5 — Use informal arguments to establish facts about the angle sum and exterior angle of triangles, about the angles created when parallel lines are cut by a transversal, and the angle-angle criterion for similarity of triangles. For example, arrange three copies of the same triangle so that the sum of the three angles appears to form a line, and give an argument in terms of transversals why this is so.
The foundational standards covered in this lesson
7.G.B.5 — Use facts about supplementary, complementary, vertical, and adjacent angles in a multi-step problem to write and solve simple equations for an unknown angle in a figure.
The essential concepts students need to demonstrate or understand to achieve the lesson objective
Suggestions for teachers to help them teach this lesson
Students may need to review 7.G.5 before they can fully access this lesson and the lessons to follow in this section. Anchor Problem #1 reviews vertical and supplementary angles, but students may need additional review of other angle relationships from seventh grade. These concepts and vocabulary will support students' problem-solving abilities as they encounter more challenging and complex angle relationship diagrams.

a. Name four pairs of congruent vertical angles.
b. $$\angle 2$$ and $$\angle 8$$ are congruent. How can you prove this?

5-10 minutes
In the diagram below, lines $$m$$ and $$n$$ are parallel. Line $$p$$ is a transversal that is perpendicular to lines $$m$$ and $$n$$. Line $$q$$ is another transversal.
If $$\angle 1$$ is $${41°}$$, then what is the measure of $$\angle 2$$? Explain how you determined your answer using appropriate vocabulary.
