Paralell Lines/Transversal and Exterior Angle Practice

Front

What are parallel lines?

Back

Lines in a plane that never meet and are always the same distance apart.

Front

What is a transversal?

Back

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

Front

What are corresponding angles?

Back

Angles that are in the same position on different parallel lines cut by a transversal.

Front

What are alternate interior angles?

Back

Angles that are on opposite sides of the transversal and inside the two lines.

Front

What are remote interior angles?

Back

The two angles inside a triangle that are not adjacent to a given exterior angle.

Front

What does the Triangle Sum Theorem state?

Back

The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is always 180 degrees.

Front

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

Back

They are equal.

Front

If angle d is an exterior angle, what are its remote interior angles?

Back

The two angles inside the triangle that are not adjacent to angle d.

Front

What is the measure of the missing angle if one angle is 60 degrees and another is 30 degrees?

Back

90 degrees.

Front

How do you find the value of x in a triangle if you know two angles?

Back

Subtract the sum of the known angles from 180 degrees.
