A Reversed ConditionParallel Line Converse Theorems

VocabularyAnswer the following question.

1. What is the converse of a statement?

Problem Set

Write the converse of each postulate or theorem.

1. Corresponding Angle Postulate:

If a transversal intersects two parallel lines, then the corresponding angles formed

are congruent.

If corresponding angles formed by two lines and a transversal are congruent, then the two lines are parallel.

2. Alternate Interior Angle Theorem:

If a transversal intersects two parallel lines, then the alternate interior angles formed

are congruent.

3. Alternate Exterior Angle Theorem:

If a transversal intersects two parallel lines, then the alternate exterior angles formed

are congruent.

of the transversal formed are supplementary.

5. Same-side Exterior Angle Theorem:

If a transversal intersects two parallel lines, then the exterior angles on the same

side of the transversal formed are supplementary.

Write the converse of each statement.

6. If a triangle has three congruent sides, then the triangle is an equilateral triangle.

Converse: If a triangle is an equilateral triangle, then the triangle has three congruent sides.

7. If a figure has four sides, then it is a quadrilateral.

8. If a figure is a rectangle, then it has four sides.

9. If two angles are vertical angles, then they are congruent.

Determine whether each statement is always true, sometimes true, or never true. Explain your answer.

33. All equilateral triangles are isosceles triangles.

Always true. An equilateral triangle is a triangle whose sides are congruent. An isosceles triangle is a triangle that has at least two congruent sides. An equilateral triangle has at least two congruent sides (it has three), so all equilateral triangles are also isosceles triangles.

34. All rectangles are squares.

35. All right triangles are acute triangles.

36. All rhombi are parallelograms.
