Task: This is a short answer test that will be conducted individually. Note: Standard geometric markings have been used to indicate the properties of shapes. Part A 1. Circle the correct definitions. a) Corresponding angles are equal in size. Corresponding angles are supplementary they add up to 180. b) Alternate angles are equal in size. Alternate angles are supplementary they add up to 180. c) Co-interior angles are equal in size. Co-interior angles are supplementary they add up to 180. d) Parallel lines are two straight lines that cross each other at a 90 angle. Parallel lines are two straight lines that are an equal distance apart for their entire length.

2. Draw over the dotted lines to illustrate the angles labelled below.

7. Imagine you are a building inspector checking walls for a company which sells prefabricated (already made) walls to builders. The technical words used for the parts of the framework are shown on the diagram below.

a. Why would it be important that the studs are perpendicular (at right angles) to both the top and bottom plates? b. Why would it be important that the alternate angles formed between the brace and the top and bottom plates are equal? c. The prefabricated walls are inspected for accurate construction before being sent to the building site. Complete the table below using the information given on the diagrams of prefabricated walls. (Note: Diagrams are not drawn to scale.)
