Parallel Lines and Transversals

Front

What are Corresponding Angles?

Back

Angles that are in the same position on two parallel lines cut by a transversal. They are equal in measure.

Front

What are Alternate Interior Angles?

Back

Angles that are on opposite sides of the transversal and inside the two parallel lines. They are equal in measure.

Front

What are Consecutive Interior Angles?

Back

Angles that are on the same side of the transversal and inside the two parallel lines. They are supplementary (add up to 180 degrees).

Front

What are Alternate Exterior Angles?

Back

Angles that are on opposite sides of the transversal and outside the two parallel lines. They are equal in measure.

Front

If two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, what can be said about their corresponding angles?

Back

They are equal in measure.

Front

If angle P measures 60 degrees, what is the measure of angle C if they are corresponding angles?

Back

Angle C measures 60 degrees.

Front

If angle P measures 60 degrees, what is the measure of angle C if they are alternate interior angles?

Back

Angle C measures 60 degrees.

Front

If angle P measures 60 degrees, what is the measure of angle C if they are consecutive interior angles?

Back

Angle C measures 120 degrees.

Front

What is the relationship between alternate exterior angles when two parallel lines are cut by a transversal?

Back

They are equal in measure.

Front

True or False: Given two parallel lines cut by a transversal, their corresponding angles are supplementary.

Back

False.
