What are vertical angles?

Back

Vertical angles are the angles opposite each other when two lines intersect; they are always congruent.

Front

What is the purpose of a transversal in geometry?

Back

A transversal is a line that intersects two or more lines at different points, creating various angle relationships.

Front

How do you prove that two lines are parallel using alternate interior angles?

Back

If a transversal intersects two lines and the alternate interior angles are congruent, then the lines are parallel.
