Parallel Lines and Transversals Practice

Front

What are parallel lines?

Back

Lines that never cross.

Front

What is a transversal?

Back

A line that cuts through a pair of parallel lines.

Front

What are corresponding angles?

Back

Angle pairs that are in the same position on different parallel lines cut by a transversal.

Front

Which angles are considered corresponding angles when two parallel lines are cut by a transversal?

Back

Angles 2 and 6.

Front

What is the relationship between two angles that are the same measure?

Back

The angles are congruent.

Front

What are vertical angles?

Back

Angle pairs that are opposite each other when two lines intersect.

Front

Which angles are considered vertical angles when two lines intersect?

Back

Angles 5 and 7.

Front

What is the sum of the interior angles of a triangle?

Back

180 degrees.

Front

What is the relationship between alternate interior angles when two parallel lines are cut by a transversal?

Back

They are congruent.

Front

What are alternate exterior angles?

Back

Angle pairs that are on opposite sides of the transversal and outside the parallel lines.
