Special Angles on Parallel Lines

Front

What are alternate exterior angles?

Back

Angles that are on opposite sides of a transversal and outside the two lines.

Front

What are alternate interior angles?

Back

Angles that are on opposite sides of a transversal and inside the two lines.

Front

What are corresponding angles?

Back

Angles that are in the same position on two parallel lines in relation to a transversal.

Front

What are vertical angles?

Back

Angles that are opposite each other when two lines intersect.

Front

If two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, what can be said about the alternate interior angles?

Back

They are equal.
