What is a transversal?

Back

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

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.

What is the Alternate Interior Angles Theorem?

Back

If two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then each pair of alternate interior angles is congruent.

What is the Converse of the Alternate Interior Angles Theorem?

Back

If two lines are cut by a transversal and the alternate interior angles are congruent, then the lines are parallel.

What are alternate interior angles?

Back

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