Angles part-2
When given the words,''one is twice as large as the other'', I know what the first angle is because if the second angle is twice as large as the first, then the first angle is half the second angle's measure.I know when to plug in a variable into an equation when the directions say,''one is five degrees bigger than the other'', because if the first angle measured x degrees and the second measured 45.The equation would be x+5=45.First, I would subtract 5 on both sides, which gives me 40.Therefore, x=40.Corresponding angles are congruent.They are not vertical.The word congruent means the same.For example, vertical angles are congruent, but supplementary angles are not congruent.Two angles cannot be both supplementary and corresponding because supplementary angles are angles that are added to equal 180 degrees, and corresponding angles are angles that equal the same.The four angles that are formed around a line and a transversal equal 360 degrees.This is always the case because a quadrilateral always equals 360 degrees.

Your blog is very specific and helpful. Keep up the good work
Hey Julissa,
It was great how you explained what you know when given the words, " one is twice as large as the other". Also it was good when you solved for the equation x+5=45. And you also used examples which was great. Good Work!
