What is a transversal?

Back

A transversal is a line that intersects two or more lines at different points.

Front

What are corresponding angles?

Back

Corresponding angles are pairs of angles that are in similar positions at each intersection where a transversal crosses two lines.

What are vertical angles?

Back

Vertical angles are the angles opposite each other when two lines intersect. They are always congruent.

How do you find the measure of an angle when given its corresponding angle?

Back

If two lines are parallel and a transversal intersects them, corresponding angles are equal.
