Front

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

Back

Consecutive interior angles are supplementary (add up to 180°).

Front

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

Back

The angles formed will have specific relationships: alternate interior angles are equal, corresponding angles are equal, and consecutive interior angles are supplementary.
