Front

What are vertical angles?

Back

Vertical angles are angles that are opposite each other when two lines intersect. They are always congruent (equal measures).

Front

What are corresponding angles?

Back

Corresponding angles are pairs of angles that are in similar positions at each intersection where a transversal crosses two lines. They are congruent when the lines are parallel.

What are alternate interior angles?

Back

Alternate interior angles are pairs of angles that lie between two lines and on opposite sides of a transversal. They are congruent when the lines are parallel.

What are alternate exterior angles?

Back

Alternate exterior angles are pairs of angles that lie outside two lines and on opposite sides of a transversal. They are congruent when the lines are parallel.

What are consecutive interior angles?

Back

Consecutive interior angles are pairs of angles that lie between two lines on the same side of a transversal. They are supplementary when the lines are parallel.
