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. They are equal when the lines are parallel.

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. They are equal when the lines are parallel.
