Exploring Angle Relationships with Parallel Lines

Why are parallel lines important for angle relationships?

• They are used to draw perfect shapes.

• They ensure that angle relationships like alternate interior and exterior angles exist.

• They help in measuring angles accurately.

• They make geometry problems easier.
