non- congruent alternate interior angles


This is a photo of the N on the Broadneck elementary school. The N creates non-congruent alternate interior angles. The 2 vertical lines are parallel while the diagonal line is not. “N” is used in the English language on signs, papers, and anywhere where words are. Anyone who writes English uses “N”

-       This is an example of marketing/advertising. This “N” is used to create words to put on billboards and other signs


segment bisector


This is a photo of lines on a tennis court. The lines show a segment bisector. The one line in the middle evenly splits the other line in half. I found this on a tennis court. You can only find these lines on tennis courts. Tennis players use these.

skew lines


Two street signs show skew lines. Street signs are examples of skew lines because they are two lines that do not intersect but they aren’t parallel. This sign was found on the street. You can mainly only find them on streets, but you can find them anywhere. Everyone who drives uses street signs.

     Road signs are part of the information industry because they inform you as to where you are.

supplementary angles that aren't a linear pair


A ruler is an example of supplementary angles that aren’t a linear pair. The angles at to 180o, and they do not share a vertex. This object was found in an office. Some other places you can find a ruler are art rooms, classrooms, or in an architects brief case.

adjacent non-supplementary angles


The angles of the glass on this glass are an example of adjacent non-supplementary angles. The angles do not form 180o (supplementary angles). This object was found in the dinning room. Some examples of how it is used is for drinking beverages, using it as a template for shapes, and for measuring. Anyone can use a glass.

vertical angles


This is a picture of a chain link fence. The links create many vertical angles. The fence creates vertical angles where they wires cross. This object was found around a sport court. It is used to keep balls from leaving the court. Chain link fences can also be used to keep people or animals off a certain area.

     Chain link fences are part of the metal fabrication industry because metal was bent to create the fence.
