What are Vertical Angles?

Back

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

What are Alternate Interior Angles?

Back

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

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.

What are Corresponding Angles?

Back

Corresponding angles are pairs of angles that are in the same position on two parallel lines in relation to a transversal. They are equal in measure.

If angle 8 is 63 degrees, what is angle 2?

Back

Angle 2 is 63 degrees because angle 8 and angle 2 are alternate exterior angles.
