Parallel Lines Cut by a Transversal Flashcards
1
Q
What is a transversal line?
A
A transversal line is a line that is intersecting two other lines
2
Q
Corresponding
A
The angles of the Xs made when the transversal line cuts through match(not the actual angle but the angles location)
3
Q
Alternate Interior
A
The angles on opposite sides, on the inside of the two lines
4
Q
Alternate Exterior
A
The angles on opposite sides, on the outside of the two lines
5
Q
Consecutive Interior
A
The angles on the same side, on the inside of the two lines
6
Q
Parallel Lines
A
All the other transversal line stuff applies with addition of the angles being congruent, except Consecutive Interior they are supplementary (they add up to 180 degrees)
7
Q

A
The top and bottom angles are congruent and the left and right angles are congruent
