calculating transversal angles

Front

What are transversal angles?

Back

Transversal angles are angles formed when a transversal line intersects two or more lines. They include corresponding angles, alternate interior angles, and alternate exterior angles.

Front

What is the sum of the angles on a straight line?

Back

The sum of the angles on a straight line is 180 degrees.

Front

What is the relationship between corresponding angles?

Back

Corresponding angles are equal when a transversal intersects two parallel lines.

Front

What is the relationship between alternate interior angles?

Back

Alternate interior angles are equal when a transversal intersects two parallel lines.

Front

What is the relationship between alternate exterior angles?

Back

Alternate exterior angles are equal when a transversal intersects two parallel lines.

Front

How do you set up an equation for transversal angles?

Back

Identify the angles involved and use the properties of angles (like equal angles or supplementary angles) to form an equation.

Front

If ∠A and ∠B are corresponding angles, what can you say about their measures?

Back

If ∠A and ∠B are corresponding angles, then their measures are equal.

Front

If ∠C and ∠D are alternate interior angles, what can you say about their measures?

Back

If ∠C and ∠D are alternate interior angles, then their measures are equal.

Front

What is the equation to solve for X if ∠1 + ∠2 = 180°?

Back

The equation is X + Y = 180°, where X and Y are the measures of the angles.

Front

What is the equation to solve for X if ∠A + ∠B = 90°?

Back

The equation is A + B = 90°, where A and B are the measures of the angles.
