Definition of Alternate Interior Angles

Definition of Alternate Interior Angles Definition of alternate interior angles helps in understanding the concept about the alternate interior angles. Alternate interior angles are the angles formed when a line (Transversal) crosses two lines that are parallel to each other. They are pair of angles inside the parallel lines and on opposite sides of the transversal. Alternate interior angles are congruent (same). In real life, a good example to understand pairs of angles is a window plane. From the figure a and b are alternate interior angles. 1 and 2 are alternate interior angles So, a = b and 1= 2 Example 1: If angle a is 450 and angle 2 is 1350 then what is angle b and angle 1? Solution: As angle a and angle b are alternate interior angles, they are congruent. = So, a =b =45 = As angle 1 and 2 are alternate interior angles, they are also congruent. = So, 1 =2 =1350 Example 2: If angle 4 = 50 degree, find the measure of angle 2 and angle 3? Solution: The given angle 4 is equal to 500. = Since, Angle 4 is the interior angle and its alternate angle is 2. = Therefore, 4 = 2= 500 = Another pair of alternate interior angles is angle 1 and 3 = Angle 4 and 1 lie in the same line. So, sum of their angles = 1800 = Therefore, 50 + 1 = 180 = Then, 1 = 1300 = Since angle 1 and 3 are alternate interior angles = Therefore, 1 = 3 = 1300

Difference between Like and As - English Lesson via Skype

Difference between Like and As - English Lesson via Skype Difference between Like and As is one of the common mistakes made by ESL students. So if youre planning to take English proficiency tests in the near future, you will find this post useful.You can either watch a short video lesson or scroll down and read the transcript below.There is also a short quiz at the end to help you better remember the difference between Like and As. Difference between Like and As - Transcript Hi there and welcome to this video and our Channel.This is Harry from englishlessonviaskype.com and youre really really welcome.Today were going to talk about the difference between LIKE and AS.They often get confused, so hopefully by the end of this video youll understand the differences and how to use them a little better.And as always, Ill give you some examples as we go through it.Were using LIKE when were talking about something that is similar to or the same as. Okay. Often we use it when were comparing people. Okay.This boy, he is like his father. He is like hisgrandfather.He is like his older brother.So he is similar to them or the same as them in terms of perhaps his stature, his build, his looks, his characteristics.Hes not exactly the same, of course, but he just looks like or acts like or behaves like them.Somebody lives in an amazing house. Big, grand, spacious.Oh this house is like a castle. Its not literally or exactly a castle. It doesnt have parapets and a drawbridge , of course. But its big and its spacious and expensive so somebody can say:Wow, what a house! It looks like a castle.Okay. So when were using like we dont mean its exactly the same. Were using it as an example of an exaggeration and its just to give it some sort of emphasis. Okay.For example, if were going to a disco and were going for dance on the floor and we say to our friends:Be really careful, that floor is very slippery. Its like dancing on ice.Now, youre not literally dancing on ice but the floor slippery so your legs are going in all directions so its like dancing on ice.You look out the window and the weather is really cold. For example, this morning when I woke up it was actually snowing and its the 14th of April and snowing.   I said:Wow, I hate weather like this!Meaning cold, not so so warm, a little dark, overcast, particularly at a time of the year when youre expecting warmer weather. Ok.  So when we use LIKE its as a preposition, its always followed by a noun so that s one way you will recognise it.Its like a castle.Like dancing on ice. Always followed by a noun. Okay.Hes like his father.He is like his grandfather. Difference between Like and As Don't keep this to yourself, tell the world: When we use AS we usually use it before the subject and a verb. So this is how you will recognise AS.For example:Please leave everything as it   was.Please leave everything as it was.It is the subject. Was is the verb.Please do it as I showed you.So if youre helping somebody at work and theyre looking for some help and you help them for example with their spreadsheet youll say:Please do it as I have showed you.So I is the subject. Have showed is the verb.So immediately you can recognise when you use AS.When we want to use AS also as a preposition? Well, we usually use it when were talking about real things.So he worked during the summer as a laborer.Ok. So its exactly that thats the work he had. He worked as a laborer.He worked as a sales assistant in the garage.Exactly the job he had as a sales assistant in the garage.When he left university he worked as a doctor in the medical centre. So as a doctor. That was literally his job.He worked as a teacher.As a teacher, as a banker, so al ways using asto describe exactly what they did and its very relevant when we we talk about peoples work.Okay. Its important to understand those differences.So LIKE similar to the SAME AS always followed by a noun.And then when were using AS it is always followed by subject and the verb.And when were talking about the preposition, usually were telling people exactly what it is.So LIKE its similar to but obviously not the same.Like a castle so theres a slight exaggeration there.But as a waiter, as a doctor then there are no exaggerations, exactly the way it was intended.Okay. So thats to describe the difference between like and as.And hopefully youve got an understanding how to recognise them and how to use them.We would really love it if youcan join us on www.englishlessonviaskype.com and as always please subscribe to our Channel.Make sure you hit the bell that they the notification button because this in this way you will be notified when theres a new video waiting for you.We have six online English language courses.Yes, six English language courses waiting for you thereand theres a discount coupon in the description below so youll be able to find something that suits you and this includes the most recent course that weve launched.Which is 73 Common Mistakes that people make in learning English.

FAFSA FAQ for Parents 2019

FAFSA FAQ for Parents 2019 If youve got a college-bound teen, youre probably at least a little familiar with the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), but do you know how this application can affect your teens future? Here are some frequently asked questions about the FAFSA and the process of applying for and getting federal student aid: What is the FAFSA? The FAFSA is an application, but it is also your familys gateway to getting financial aid to pay for college. Your teen cannot get federal student aid (such as federal grants, work-study, and loans) if they dont complete the FAFSA. And many states and colleges use it to determine student eligibility for state and school aid, too. When should we complete the FAFSA? For the 2019-2020 school year, students and/or parents can apply between October 1, 2018 and June 30, 2020. For the 2020-2021 school year, students and/or parents can apply between October 1, 2019 and June 30, 2021. Keep in mind, however, that many states and colleges have earlier deadlines for state and college aid. Your teen should check with the college to be sure. Who is eligible to receive financial aid? The FAFSA website lists the specific, detailed requirements, but generally, students must hold a high school diploma or General Education Development certificate and be enrolled in an eligible program as a regular student seeking a degree or certificate, maintaining satisfactory academic progress. They must be U.S. citizens or eligible noncitizens with Social Security Numbers, not be in default on any federal student loans, not have any convictions for the possession or sale of illegal drugs, and register with the Selective Service System if male and not currently on active duty in the U.S. Armed Forces. What do students need to complete the FAFSA? Students and/or parents need a Social Security Number or Alien Registration Number, federal income tax returns, W-2s, and records of taxed or untaxed income, bank and investment records, and an FSA ID, which parents and students can create at https://fsaid.ed.gov. When are state student aid and college aid deadlines? They vary from state to state, college to college. Its best to contact the colleges your teen is interested in attending to find out for sure. Should my teen apply to colleges before completing the FAFSA? Applicants have to list at least one college that will receive their FAFSA information, but they dont have to wait until they have applied to list a school. Your teen should list all schools theyre interested in (up to 10 are allowed). If your teen later considers a new school, they can submit a correction to the FAFSA online. Are grades a factor for financial aid? They are not. However, students must maintain satisfactory academic progress to continue receiving federal student aid. Each school has its own policy for what that means (typically a minimum GPA and number of credits per year), so check with the college. Does my teen have to apply one time only? No, your teen needs to submit the FAFSA every year. It is possible that the aid package awarded to him or her will change after the first year. Your teen also needs to make satisfactory academic progress in order to remain eligible for federal aid. In other words, students who earn poor grades in college are putting their financial aid eligibility at risk. Once weve applied, what happens? Your teens application will be processed by the U.S. Department of Education within 3-10 days. After that, your teen will receive a Student Aid Report (SAR), which summarizes the information provided on the FAFSA and includes an Expected Family Contribution. Colleges use this figure to determine federal and nonfederal student aid and to create student award packages. How is the Expected Family Contribution calculated? This federal formula considers your familys taxed and untaxed income, assets, and benefits (like unemployment), as well as your family size and the number of family members in college that year. Expected Family Contribution is not an amount of money your family is required to pay for college or the amount of financial aid your teen will be eligible to receive.

Inspired by a Kumon Program Completer, This Student Became One Himself

Inspired by a Kumon Program Completer, This Student Became One Himself Inspired by a Kumon Program Completer, This Student Became One Himself Sebastian Estrada, 11-years-old, Reading Program Completer, Level J Math 11-year-old Sebastian has already done a lot for a student his age. He is a member of his school’s Battle of the Books Club, has earned Principal Honor Roll every year, is a competitive tennis player, and has won first place in his local Math Bowl Competition as both an individual and as part of his school’s team. Recently, he added the title of Kumon Reading Program Completer to his long list of accomplishments. Even high-achieving students like Sebastian need some motivation at times, however. As a fourth grader, Sebastian was selected to attend a local Kumon Student Forum and was inspired by Kumon Program Completer Kiran Shay. He was so motivated by Kiran’s speech that he decided to increase his Kumon workload so that he could complete the Reading Program more quickly. This experience also encouraged Sebastian to apply to attend the 2018 Kumon Student Conference. He wanted to meet other inspiring Kumon Students, in hopes of learning more about how they benefited from the program and to share his own experiences with other students from all over North America. Thanks to his impressive resume and zeal for learning, Sebastian was chosen to join 55 other Kumon Students from the United States, Canada, and Mexico at the Student Conference, held in Calgary last July. Sebastian, who is currently studying advanced algebra in the Kumon Math Program, shared more about how he’s seen such success in the program. How has Kumon helped you beyond academics? Kumon has helped me develop a strong sense of discipline and determination. Over the years, I have definitely become more conscious of focusing on what is important to me and what will help me become more successful later in life. It has taught me to balance my time between Kumon, school and my extracurricular activities. Additionally, it has taught me to prioritize everyday tasks and to know that nothing comes without hard work. Sebastian shakes hands with Kumon North America President Mino Tanabe Describe an “a-ha” moment at Kumon when you didn’t understand something and then you finally got it. This “a-ha” moment has happened to me several times, especially after I started Level G in math. When I was simplifying polynomials at the end of Level H, I was having a hard time getting the concept. But just like my Instructor says, I did not give up and kept trying to look at the examples provided until finally, I got it! Once I got to the center for my class, I checked the solution book and I had actually done it right! Even though some concepts are very hard to get at first, I have realized that the repetitions in Kumon will let me eventually understand it and master it. What keeps you motivated in Kumon? What keeps me motivated in Kumon is my love for learning and that I always want to know more and more. It is exciting for me every time that I see a new concept. Moreover, I enjoy that I can do my school work with ease, and that my classmates recognize me as an “expert” in math and often come to me to get help. Finally, I want to get accepted into one of the top colleges, and I know that the discipline and dedication that Kumon requires will help me get there. Discover even more student success stories.

How to deal with culture clashes in the international classroom

How to deal with culture clashes in the international classroom When hiring teachers to teach in an international school, they are coming in to a classroom where many cultures might be coming together. For many of your teachers, this may be their first experience in such a culturally diverse classroom. And an international classroom can pose a unique set of challenges, including culture gaps or clashes. Sometimes, these differences can even make more culturally charged classroom conversations difficult, including racism, gender inequality, and other sensitive topics. Although some differences may arise from time to time, a diverse student population is something to celebrate. So what can a school’s administration do to bridge these gaps, should they occur? Read below for some tips on how to support your teachers in dealing with these difficult conversations and culture gaps. Empower your teachers through great training There are so many tools that teachers can be offered in order to handle these difficult situations when they arise, and many of these can cost very little. In fact, sometimes, it’s a matter of offering up a mentor to each new teacher to walk them through possible classroom scenarios and give them tips to diffuse any situations that could arise. Be as specific as possible A good starting place when you’re offering onboarding training and sensitivity training to your teachers is to be as specific to your community as possible. Don’t offer generalizations -- speak specifically to what issues your teachers may deal with. Teachers working in Saudi Arabia will have different conversations with their students than teachers in Korea. By offering teachers community-specific training, they will likely feel better equipped to engage in their new community using local communication norms. Encourage teachers to lead by example This is something important to communicate to your teachers. Students will look to their teacher as a guide for how to conduct themselves in the classroom. If teachers model inclusivity and respect for cultural differences, students may be more inclined to mirror this attitude. Teachers need to be encouraged to take a leadership role. The classroom should be a safe space for learning Just as some students shouldn’t feel bullied by others’ opinions, all students should feel free to speak their minds in a culturally sensitive manner. Teachers can be encouraged to use engaging language cues in their classroom in order to prompt other students to get involved, including, “Interesting opinion. Does anyone else have a thought?” Even encouraging teachers to ask their students to justify their answers by asking ‘why’ can model for students a more inquisitive and curious conversation model.

Learning Styles

Study Skills/ Learning Styles Throughout my academic career I was always very busy with various activities and I would procrastinate if I had too much free time, so I had to develop good study skills to help me excel in school. I utilized a variety of learning techniques that I could effectively teach my students to help them succeed in all of their classes.Every student is different so I will teach each student different techniques that will assist them depending on their type of learning style. I think it is very important for students to develop a schedule of everything that they are working on and how much time they have to devote to each class every week. That way each student can see howhours they have available to spend on every assignment and they can visualize the importance of starting certain assignments early. This is especially important if the student is involved in other activities that take a good part of their time after school or if this is a difficult subject for him/her. We will work together and figure out a way that they can spend their time efficiently on each subject and not waste a lot of time.I will also use different methods of teaching depending on each student’s learning style. I am mostly a visual and kinesthetic learner and it helps me when I physically write things down on a white board and then see what I have written. Some students learn more effectively by listening to the concept over and over again and using songs or mnemonics to remember key concepts. I will figure out the best teaching method that works for each of my students to help them achieve their goals.I have also taken multiple standardized tests and I have developed many test taking strategies that I can teach to my students to help them succeed.Effectively managing my time while taking exams has always been something that I struggled with in school and I had to practice taking exams under timed conditions. It is very important students learn not to take too much time on any particular quest ion and not to move too quickly through exams and miss questions that they could have gotten correct. I believe that I can help my students develop these skills in order to improve their test taking strategies on standardized tests as well as exams in throughout elementary school, high school, and college.
