What educators are saying

Mazes are always my go-to in terms of getting students engaged and hopefully making them forget that they are doing math.
I used this in my Geometry class for 10th graders. The students needed an engaging activity for this topic and it was perfect. It provided great practice for the angle relationships in parallel lines.

Description

8th grade Math & Geometry students will stay engaged and gain confidence as they work their way through this Parallel Lines Cut By a Transversal Solving Equations activity. This maze will help your students who are struggling with congruent & supplementary angle pairs.

Printable PDF, Google Slides & Easel by TPT Versions are included in this distance learning ready activity which consists of a maze of 11 parallel lines cut by transversal in which students are given angle measures as equations and must decide if they are congruent or supplementary and then solve for x. This Google Classroom and Easel by TPT ready activity come in both digital & PDF format. Your students are sure to have a fun and engaging lesson whether you are teaching physically in the classroom or virtual!

Not all boxes are used in the maze to prevent students from just guessing the correct route. In order to complete the maze students will have to calculate the value of X 9 times.

Standards

to see state-specific standards (only available in the US).
Use informal arguments to establish facts about the angle sum and exterior angle of triangles, about the angles created when parallel lines are cut by a transversal, and the angle-angle criterion for similarity of triangles. For example, arrange three copies of the same triangle so that the sum of the three angles appears to form a line, and give an argument in terms of transversals why this is so.
