053 - Corresponding, Alternate Interior, Alternate Exterior

Front

What are corresponding angles?

Back

Angles that are in the same position on two parallel lines cut by a transversal.

Front

What are alternate interior angles?

Back

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

Front

What are alternate exterior angles?

Back

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

Front

What are same side interior angles?

Back

Angles that are on the same side of the transversal and inside the two lines.

Front

What is a transversal?

Back

A line that intersects two or more lines.

Front

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

Back

They are equal.

Front

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

Back

They are equal.

Front

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

Back

They are equal.

Front

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

Back

They are supplementary (sum to 180 degrees).

Front

How do you identify corresponding angles?

Back

Look for angles that are in the same relative position at each intersection.
