Transversals

Front

What are transversals?

Back

Transversals are lines that intersect two or more other lines at distinct points.

Front

Define alternate interior angles.

Back

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

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.
