Description:
Students will create a foldable, design a seating chart, and then use the information to create a presentation on angle
relationships.
Content Connection:
CC.8.G.5
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 three angles appear to form a line, and give an argument in terms of
transversals why this is so.
Objectives:
I can…
 create angles using parallel lines and a transversal
 identify and analyze angle relationships (i.e.: linear pairs, interior/exterior, adjacent, complementary,
supplementary, vertical, corresponding, and alternate interior/exterior).
Introduction:
Coach John Calipari needs your help! The University of Kentucky Men’s
Basketball team is going to be traveling a lot in the next few weeks and when they
travel he likes his team to focus on the competition ahead. The team will be
traveling by airplane and bus. Your task is to position some of the players on the
bus and plane using your new knowledge of angle relationships. Not only does he
want you to explain the relationships of the players position but also give the
angles at which the members are sitting. After you have determined your “Seating
Charts” you need to present this information to John Calipari using images of your
work. Your images need to give a clear picture of the angle relationships you used,
the angle measures, and which players you positioned.
Good Luck!
Type equation here.
Task:
1. Conduct background information of each type of angle.
2. Fill in the definition and example (image) of each type of angle in your foldable.
3. Using the plane and bus layout that has been printed off for you, brainstorm different positions that you could
put players in.
4. Once you have figured out the final player’s positions, the angle relationship they are representing, and the
angle measures they create, take a picture and upload it to the computer.
5. Create a Prezi Presentation for John Calipari to show him everything you have created.
6. Present your Prezi to the class.
7. Conduct a reflection of your work using the “self-reflection” rubric.
Process:
1. Create a foldable:
a. Fold the paper “hot dog” style.
b. Draw 8 evenly spaced lines on one side of the paper
c. Cut along the lines so that you create 9 separate flaps
d.
Label the flaps with the following vocabulary words (Each vocabulary word will have its own flap):
 Complementary Angles
 Supplementary Angles
 Transversal
 Parallel Lines
 Vertical Angles
 Corresponding Angles
 Alternate Interior Angles
 Alternate Exterior Angles
 Adjacent Angles
2. Define Vocabulary:
a. Use the links below to help you gain a better understanding of the vocabulary above.
b. For EACH vocabulary word, you will need to record a definition and an example. The example must
include an image!
c. Explore the links below to complete your foldable:

3. Create the seating charts:

b. Putting your knowledge to the test:
 With your partner, get a copy of the airplane and bus blueprint from your teacher.
 You must arrange the team members on the airplane and bus to demonstrate the different
angle relationships that you have learned.
 After placing the members in a seat, determine the different angle measures that they create.
 Once you feel confident in your work, get a new copy of each blueprint and create a final draft.
4. Final Draft:
a. Once you have completed your final draft of each seating chart:
 Take a picture of each final seating chart using you or your partner’s phone.
 Upload the pictures to the computer and save them!
5. Create a Prezi Presentation:
a. Go to www.prezi.com
b. Log in
c. Create a Prezi for Coach John Calipari
 Be sure to include which type of angle relationships that you used.
 Don’t forget to include the angle measures.
6. Present your final Product to the class.
7. Conduct a self-reflection of your work.
a. Get a self-reflection rubric from your teacher.
b. While completing the rubric, remember to grade yourself honestly!
c. Turn your rubric in once it has been completed.
