What is a transversal?

Back

A transversal is a line that intersects two or more lines at different points.

Front

What are alternate exterior angles?

Back

Alternate exterior angles are pairs of angles that lie outside the two lines and on opposite sides of the transversal.

Front

If angle 1 is 45 degrees, what is the measure of angle 5 if they are corresponding angles?

Back

Angle 5 is also 45 degrees because corresponding angles are equal.
