Parallel Lines Cut By a Transversal FLASHCARD

Front

What are Alternate Interior Angles?

Back

Angles that lie between two parallel lines and on opposite sides of the transversal.

Front

What are Corresponding Angles?

Back

Angles that are in the same position on two parallel lines in relation to a transversal.

Front

What are Vertical Angles?

Back

Angles that are opposite each other when two lines intersect; they are always equal.

Front

What are Consecutive Interior Angles?

Back

Angles that lie on the same side of the transversal and inside the two parallel lines; they are supplementary.

Front

If two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, what can be said about the alternate interior angles?

Back

They are equal.

Front

If m<2 = 60 degrees and <2 and <5 are corresponding angles, what is m<5?

Back

m<5 = 60 degrees.

Front

If m<2 = 60 degrees and m<5 = (x + 25), find x.

Back

x = 35.

Front

What is the equation to find the value of x if 8X - 17 + 5X + 19 = 180?

Back

8X - 17 + 5X + 19 = 180.

Front

What is the sum of the measures of consecutive interior angles?

Back

180 degrees.

Front

If two lines are parallel, what is the relationship between corresponding angles?

Back

They are equal.
