Exploring Angles Formed by a Transversal

What is a transversal?

• A line that forms a right angle

• A line that is parallel to another line

• A line that intersects two or more lines

• A line that intersects one line

How many angles are formed when a transversal intersects two lines?

• Four

• Six

• Eight

• Ten

What are corresponding angles?

• Angles that are adjacent to each other

• Angles on opposite sides of the transversal

• Angles in the same position at each intersection

• Angles on the same side of the transversal

Which of the following pairs are corresponding angles?

• Angle 3 and Angle 7

• Angle 2 and Angle 3

• Angle 5 and Angle 8

• Angle 1 and Angle 4

What does 'interior' mean in the context of alternate interior angles?

• Angles that are adjacent

• Angles on the outside of the lines

• Angles that are supplementary

• Angles on the inside of the lines

Which of the following pairs are alternate interior angles?

• Angle 3 and Angle 6

• Angle 2 and Angle 7

• Angle 4 and Angle 1

• Angle 1 and Angle 8

What are alternate exterior angles?

• Angles that are supplementary

• Angles on opposite sides of the transversal and outside the lines

• Angles that are adjacent

• Angles on the same side of the transversal

Which of the following pairs are alternate exterior angles?

• Angle 4 and Angle 5

• Angle 6 and Angle 7

• Angle 2 and Angle 3

• Angle 1 and Angle 8

What are same side interior angles?

• Angles that are adjacent

• Angles that are supplementary

• Angles on opposite sides of the transversal

• Angles on the same side of the transversal and inside the lines

Which of the following pairs are same side interior angles?

• Angle 1 and Angle 8

• Angle 2 and Angle 7

• Angle 3 and Angle 6

• Angle 4 and Angle 6
