Parallel Lines and Transversals Practice

Front

What are vertical angles?

Back

Vertical angles are the angles opposite each other when two lines intersect. They are always equal.

Front

Identify the angle pairs that are considered same side exterior angles.

Back

Same side exterior angles are the angles that lie outside the parallel lines and on the same side of the transversal.

Front

What are alternate interior angles?

Back

Alternate interior angles are the angles that lie between the parallel lines and on opposite sides of the transversal. They are equal.

What are same side interior angles?

Back

Same side interior angles are the angles that lie between the parallel lines and on the same side of the transversal. They are supplementary.
