Parallel lines are lines that share the same slope (steepness) and therefore never intersect. A transversal occurs when a set of parallel lines are crossed by another line. All of the angles formed by a transversal are called interior angles and angles in the same position on different parallel lines equal each other (a° = w°, b° = x°, c° = z°, d° = y°) and are called corresponding angles. Alternate interior angles are equal (a° = z°, b° = y°, c° = w°, d° = x°) and all acute angles (a° = c° = w° = z°) and all obtuse angles (b° = d° = x° = y°) equal each other. Same-side interior angles are supplementary and add up to 180° (e.g. a° + d° = 180°, d° + c° = 180°).

The surface area of a cylinder is 2πr² + 2πrh:

sa = 2πr² + 2πrh
sa = 2π(5²) + 2π(5 x 9)
sa = 2π(25) + 2π(45)
sa = (2 x 25)π + (2 x 45)π
sa = 50π + 90π
sa = 140π

The entire length of this line is represented by AD which is AB + BD:

AD = AB + BD

The area of a triangle is equal to ½ base x height:

a = ½bh
a = ½ x 3 x 6 = \( \frac{18}{2} \) = 9

Angles around a line add up to 180°. Angles around a point add up to 360°. When two lines intersect, adjacent angles are supplementary (they add up to 180°) and angles across from either other are vertical (they're equal).
