2. Looking at the Consecutive Interior Angles (9 points)
Look at the diagram of the scenario below. A steep downhill ski slope is intersected at an angle by a less steep ski slope. Safety fences need to be set up in the locations shown. The angles of the fences, angles 1 and 2, can be determined by finding the relationship between the angles a and b.
Draw a geometric diagram of this scenario using two parallel lines and one transversal. (Remember that a transversal is a line which cuts across parallel lines.) Label the angles, parallel lines, and transversal as indicated in the diagram above. (2 points)
Starting with the fact that angles 1 and a are a linear pair and that angles b and 2 are also a linear pair, use a two column proof to prove that consecutive interior angles a and b are supplementary. (5 points)
Statement Reason
Explain what the result of your proof tells you about angles a and b. Specifically, if you measured one angle, what would you know about the other? (2 points)
3. The Exterior Angles (6 points)
The fences will be aligned with the exterior angles ∠1 and ∠2. What are some other relationships you can see between ∠1, ∠2, ∠a, and ∠b? (2 points)
Which of the relationships you listed above will be the most helpful in figuring out the measurements of the safety fences? (2 points)
What is the measure of ∠2? (2 points)
4. Reflections (2 points: 1 point each)
Can you think of any other real-life scenarios where parallel lines and transversals exist?
What are the limitations of the ski slope scenario as a real-life example?

(05.03 mc) part a: explain why the x-coordinates of the points where the graphs of the equations y = 4x and y = 2x−2 intersect are the solutions of the equation 4x = 2x−2. (4 points) part b: make tables to find the solution to 4x = 2x−2. take the integer values of x between −3 and 3. (4 points) part c: how can you solve the equation 4x = 2x−2 graphically? (2 points)

The probability that a u. s. resident has traveled to canada is 0.18 and to mexico is 0.09. a. if traveling to canada and traveling to mexico are independent events, what is the probability that a randomly-selected person has traveled to both? (page 109 in the book may ) b. it turns out that only 4% of u. s. residents have traveled to both countries. comparing this with your answer to part a, are the events independent? explain why or why not. (page 119 may ) c. using the %’s given, make a venn diagram to display this information. (don’t use your answer to part a.) d. using the conditional probability formula (page 114 in the book) and the %’s given, find the probability that a randomly-selected person has traveled to canada, if we know they have traveled to mexico.
