Students will practice classifying angle pairs along a transversal with this “Triples” Activity. This activity includes alternate interior angles, alternate exterior angles, consecutive interior angles, consecutive exterior angles, corresponding angles, vertical angles, a linear pair, and angle pairs that have no named relationship.
There are 24 total cards with diagrams. Once matched, there will be 8 sets of 3 cards, each with the same angle pair name. I also included 8 additional cards with the name of the classification if you wish to use those as well for students to name their triples. Students can work on their own or with a partner to match the cards. Once they are finished, I have my students staple their “triples” together and place in a zip-lock bag. The card numbers make this super easy to grade! An answer key is included to use to ensure the correct cards and matched.
NOTE: This activity is about classifying angle pairs along a transversal and NOT about parallel lines. It is to be used with the lesson prior to proving lines are parallel based on the angle pair measures. Students must first be able to recognize and name the angle pairs along a transversal, whether the lines are parallel or not.
