Transversals

Front

What are Consecutive Interior Angles?

Back

Consecutive Interior Angles are pairs of angles that lie on the same side of a transversal and between two parallel lines. They are supplementary, meaning their measures add up to 180 degrees.

Front

What is the relationship of Corresponding Angles?

Back

Corresponding Angles are pairs of angles that are in the same position on two different parallel lines cut by a transversal. They are equal in measure.

Front

Define Alternate Interior Angles.

Back

Alternate Interior Angles are pairs of angles that lie between two parallel lines but on opposite sides of the transversal. They are equal in measure.

Front

What are Parallel Lines?

Back

Parallel Lines are lines in a plane that never intersect or meet, no matter how far they are extended. They are always the same distance apart.

Front

Identify the Alternate Interior Angle to angle 3 if angle 5 is given.

Back

The Alternate Interior Angle to angle 3 is angle 5.

Front

What are Alternate Exterior Angles?

Back

Alternate Exterior Angles are pairs of angles that lie outside two parallel lines and on opposite sides of the transversal. They are equal in measure.

Front

Explain Vertical Angles.

Back

Vertical Angles are the angles opposite each other when two lines intersect. They are always equal in measure.

Front

What is the significance of a transversal in geometry?

Back

A transversal is a line that intersects two or more lines at different points. It helps in identifying various angle relationships.

Front

How do you identify Corresponding Angles?

Back

Corresponding Angles can be identified by their position; they are located in the same relative position at each intersection of the transversal with the parallel lines.

Front

What is the sum of Consecutive Interior Angles?

Back

The sum of Consecutive Interior Angles is always 180 degrees.
