Parallel Lines & Transversals

Front

What is a transversal?

Back

A transversal is a line that passes through two or more lines in the same plane, intersecting them.

Front

Name the corresponding angle to angle 4.

Back

Angle 8.

Front

What are vertical angles?

Back

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

Front

What is the relationship between angle 1 and angle 4?

Back

Angle 1 and angle 4 are vertical angles.

Front

What are alternate interior angles?

Back

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

Front

What is the relationship between angle 4 and angle 5?

Back

Angle 4 and angle 5 are alternate interior angles.

Front

What are corresponding angles?

Back

Corresponding angles are pairs of angles that are in the same position on two different lines cut by a transversal.

Front

What is the relationship between angle 1 and angle 8?

Back

Angle 1 and angle 8 are corresponding angles.

Front

What is the relationship between angle 2 and angle 6?

Back

Angle 2 and angle 6 are corresponding angles.

Front

What are alternate exterior angles?

Back

Alternate exterior angles are pairs of angles that lie outside two lines and on opposite sides of a transversal.
