What is the relationship between alternate interior angles?

Back

Alternate interior angles are equal when two parallel lines are cut by a transversal.

Front

What are corresponding angles?

Back

Corresponding angles are the angles that are in the same position at each intersection where a straight line crosses two others. They are equal when the lines are parallel.

How do you find the measure of an unknown angle if you know one angle in a complementary pair?

Back

Subtract the known angle from 90 degrees.

What is the measure of an angle that is supplementary to a 70 degree angle?

Back

110 degrees, because 180 - 70 = 110.

If angle 4 and angle 6 are alternate interior angles, what can be said about their measures?

Back

Angle 4 and angle 6 are equal in measure.

Front

What is the definition of same-side interior angles?

Back

Same-side interior angles are the pairs of angles on the same side of the transversal and inside the two lines. They are supplementary when the lines are parallel.
