Exploring Transversal Angle Relationships

This video tutorial explains the concept of a transversal, a line that intersects two or more coplanar lines at different points. It discusses the eight angles formed by a transversal, including interior, exterior, consecutive interior, alternate interior, alternate exterior, and corresponding angles. The video provides definitions and examples for each type of angle, helping viewers understand their properties and relationships. The tutorial concludes with a brief mention of how transversals interact with parallel lines, setting the stage for further exploration in subsequent videos.

What is a transversal?

• A line that is parallel to another line

• A line that intersects two or more coplanar lines at two different points

• A line that intersects only one line

• A line that is perpendicular to another line
