Chapter 5 Geometry

Two lines in the same plane that never intersect

• perpendicular lines

• parallel lines

• skew lines

• transversal lines

Two lines in the same plane that intersect to form right angles

• transversal lines

• parallel lines

• perpendicular lines

• skew lines

A line that cuts across another set of lines (usually a parallel set)

• transversal line

• parallel lines

• perpendicular lines

• skew lines

The four inside angles formed when two lines are cut by a transversal

• vertical angles

• corresponding angles

• exterior angles

• interior angles

If this is a right triangle, find the measure of x to the nearest hundredth.

• 42°

• 41.98°

• 41.99°

• 45°

The four outer angles formed when two lines are cut by a transversal

• exterior angles

• interior angles

• corresponding angles

• vertical angles

Non-adjacent interior angles that lie on opposite sides of the transversal

• vertical angles

• alternate exterior angles

• alternate interior angles

• corresponding angles

Non-adjacent exterior angles that lie on opposite sides of the transversal

• vertical angles

• alternate exterior angles

• alternate interior angles

• corresponding angles

Angles that are in the same position on two parallel lines in relation to a transversal

• corresponding angles

• adjacent angles

• alternate interior angles

• complementary angles

Each of the pairs of opposite angles made by two intersecting lines (across the vertex from each other)

• supplementary angles

• horizontal angles

• adjacent angles

• vertical angles
