Thank you.

In this video, we're going to cover how you can use the rules of alternate angles, corresponding angles, and allied angles.
3
Importantly though, we only use these rules in one specific scenario.
4
which is where we have two parallel lines running alongside each other like this, and then another line, which we can call a transversal, cutting through them both.
5
Whenever this happens, we end up with two groups of angles.
6
One here at the bottom, and another one here at the top.
7
And there are four important points that you want to notice about these angles.
8
The first is that both groups of angles are both exactly the same.
9
For example, in this case, they both have a 120 degree, a 60 degree, another 120 degree, and another 60 degree angle.
10
The second point is that each group only contains two different angles.
11
In this case, 60 degree angles.
12
and 120 degree angles.
13
The third point is that the two different angles will always add up to 180 degrees.
14
For example here, where our angles are 60 degrees and 120 degrees, These two add up to 180 degrees.
15
And the last point is that vertically opposite angles are always the same.
16
For example, these two 60 degree angles are considered vertically opposite which is why they're both 60 degrees.
17
and likewise these two 120 degree angles are also vertically opposite.
18
Now, as long as you properly understand all of these rules, You can use this knowledge to work out unknown angles if one of them is missing.
19
For example, if we had to find this angle here, marked x.
20
we'd be able to tell that it's 60 degrees.
21
Either because it's opposite this 60 degree angle, and we know that vertically opposite angles are always equal,
22
or because we know that it has to add to this 120 degrees to make 180.
23
To help with more complicated questions though, there are three more rules that are worth memorizing.
24
The first rule is that alternate angles are the same.
25
And what I mean by alternate angles is the two angles found in the corners of a Z shape like this.
26
For example, if we look at our diagram, we can see that the Z shape is here.
27
even though it's been flipped around in this case.
28
And so it's these two 60 -degree angles that we consider alternate angles.
29
The second rule is pretty similar, but says that corresponding angles are the same.
30
and corresponding angles are these two angles that you find in an F shape.
31
For example, on our diagram, the F shape is here.
32
So these two 60 degree angles are corresponding angles.
33
The third rule is that allied angles add up to 180 degrees.
34
and allied angles are just the interior angles of a C shape.
35
So in this diagram, these two angles would add together to make 180 degrees.
36
We also sometimes call these co -interior angles, or just interior angles.
37
So just know that allied, co -interior and interior all mean the same thing here.
38
If we look on our main diagram, we can see one of these C shapes here.
39
So the allied angles would be this 60 degrees, and this is 120 degrees.
40
which indeed do add together to make 180.
41
One thing to point out with all of these rules is that you'll sometimes see them in other orientations.
42
like flip it around, in which case they'll be harder to spot.
43
But as long as they have the same combination of two parallel lines and one transversal, then the rules are going to be the same.
44
To see how it all works in practice, let's have a go at this exam question.
45
So in this question we have a pair of parallel lines
46
AB and CD and then a transversal that cuts through the two of them.
47
and we need to find the missing angles x and y Now, because of all of the different rules that we can use, there are normally multiple ways that we can do questions like this.
48
And so there's no one correct way of doing it.
49
The way I would do it though is notice that this section here is like a backwards C shape.
50
and do the 135 degrees and the x are allied or co -interior angles.
51
which means that they must add together to make 180 degrees.
52
So we now know that 135 plus x equals 180.
53
which means that x is 45 degrees.
54
And then because y is vertically opposite x, we know that y must be 45 degrees as well.
55
Anyway, that's the end of this video.

Phương Pháp Shadowing Là Gì?
Shadowing là kỹ thuật học ngôn ngữ có cơ sở khoa học, ban đầu được phát triển cho chương trình đào tạo phiên dịch viên chuyên nghiệp và được phổ biến rộng rãi bởi nhà đa ngôn ngữ học Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Nguyên lý cốt lõi đơn giản nhưng cực kỳ hiệu quả: bạn nghe tiếng Anh của người bản xứ và lặp lại to ngay lập tức — như một "cái bóng" (shadow) đuổi theo người nói với độ trễ chỉ 1–2 giây. Khác với luyện ngữ pháp hay học từ vựng bị động, Shadowing buộc não bộ và cơ miệng phải đồng thời xử lý và tái tạo ngôn ngữ thực tế. Các nghiên cứu khoa học xác nhận phương pháp này cải thiện đáng kể phát âm, ngữ điệu, nhịp điệu, nối âm, kỹ năng nghe và độ lưu loát khi nói — đặc biệt hiệu quả cho người luyện IELTS Speaking và muốn giao tiếp tiếng Anh tự nhiên như người bản ngữ.
