Parallel Line Theorems and Converse

Corresponding Angle Postulate Converse

• If two parallel lines are cut by a traversal, then corresponding angles are supplementary.

• If two parallel lines are cut by a traversal, then corresponding angles are congruent.

• If corresponding angles are congruent, then two parallel lines are cut by a traversal.

• If corresponding angles are supplementary, then two parallel lines are cut by a traversal.
