Angles Test

Front

What are corresponding angles?

Back

Corresponding angles are pairs of 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

Alternate interior angles are pairs of angles that lie between two parallel lines on opposite sides of a transversal. They are equal in measure.

Front

What are alternate exterior angles?

Back

Alternate exterior angles are pairs of angles that lie outside two parallel lines on opposite sides of a transversal. They are equal in measure.

Front

What are consecutive interior angles?

Back

Consecutive interior angles are pairs of angles that lie between two parallel lines on the same side of a transversal. They are supplementary, meaning they add up to 180 degrees.

Front

How do you identify corresponding angles in a diagram?

Back

Look for angles that are in the same relative position at each intersection where a transversal crosses two parallel lines.

Front

How do you identify alternate interior angles in a diagram?

Back

Look for angles that are located between the two parallel lines but on opposite sides of the transversal.

Front

How do you identify alternate exterior angles in a diagram?

Back

Look for angles that are located outside the two parallel lines but on opposite sides of the transversal.

Front

How do you identify consecutive interior angles in a diagram?

Back

Look for angles that are located between the two parallel lines and on the same side of the transversal.

Front

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

Back

The corresponding angles are equal in measure.

If two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, what can be said about the alternate interior angles?

Back

The alternate interior angles are equal in measure.
