FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
Name the angle relationship: Alternate Interior, Alternate Exterior, Corresponding, Vertical Angles.
Back
Vertical Angles
Answer explanation
Vertical angles are formed when two lines intersect, creating two pairs of opposite angles that are equal. This relationship is distinct from alternate interior, alternate exterior, and corresponding angles.
2.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the relationship of the Angles? Options: Alternate Interior, Alternate Exterior, Corresponding, Vertical
Back
Alternate Interior
Answer explanation
The correct answer is 'Alternate Interior' because these angles are formed when a transversal crosses two parallel lines, creating pairs of angles that are on opposite sides of the transversal and inside the parallel lines.
3.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
Which pair of angles are alternate exterior angles? Options: Angle 7 and Angle 4, Angle 2 and Angle 6, Angle 8 and Angle 1, Angle 2 and Angle 8
Back
Angle 8 and Angle 1
Answer explanation
Alternate exterior angles are formed when a transversal crosses two parallel lines. Angle 8 and Angle 1 are on opposite sides of the transversal and outside the parallel lines, making them alternate exterior angles.
4.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
Supplementary angles
Back
Angles that add up to 180°
Answer explanation
Supplementary angles are defined as two angles that add up to 180°. This means that if you have one angle, the other angle can be found by subtracting it from 180°. The other options describe different types of angles.
5.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
Name the angle relationship: Consecutive Interior, Alternate Interior, Corresponding, Vertical Angles.
Back
Corresponding
Answer explanation
The correct answer is 'Corresponding' angles, which are formed when a transversal crosses two parallel lines. These angles are in the same position relative to the parallel lines and are equal in measure.
6.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
Name the alternate interior angle to angle 3.
Back
5
Answer explanation
Angle 5 is the alternate interior angle to angle 3 because they are on opposite sides of the transversal and inside the parallel lines. Thus, the correct answer is 5.
7.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
Name the corresponding angle to angle 4. Options: angle 8, angle 6, angle 2, angle 5.
Back
angle 8
Answer explanation
Angle 4 and angle 8 are corresponding angles formed by a transversal intersecting two parallel lines. Since they are in the same relative position at each intersection, angle 8 is the corresponding angle to angle 4.
