Transversal/Parallel Line Theorems

Question 1

Angle Addition Postulate

Answer 1

If an angle is made up of two individual angles, the measure of the whole angle is equal to the sum of the measure of the two individual angles

Question 2

Vertical Angles Theorem

Answer 2

Vertical angles are congruent

Question 3

Corresponding Angles Theorem

Answer 3

If a transversal intersects parallel lines, then the resulting corresponding angles are congruent

Question 4

Alternate Exterior Angles Theorem

Answer 4

If a transversal intersects two parallel lines, then the resulting alternate exterior angles are congruent.

Question 5

Alternate Interior Angles Theorem

Answer 5

If a transversal intersects two parallel lines, then the resulting alternate angles are congruent.

Question 6

Same Side Interior Angles

Answer 6

If a transversal intersects two parallel lines, then the resulting same side interior angles are supplementary.

Question 7

Converse of Corresponding Angles Theorem

Answer 7

If the corresponding angles of two lines cut by a transversal are congruent, then the two lines are parallel

Question 8

Converse of Same Side Interior Angles Theorem

Answer 8

If the same-side interior angles of two lines cut by a transversal are supplementary, then the two lines are parallel

Question 9

Converse of Alternate Exterior Angles Theorem

Answer 9

If the alternate exterior angles of two lines cut by a transversal are congruent, then the two lines are parallel

Question 10

Converse of Alternate Interior Angles Theorem

Answer 10

If the alternate interior angles of two lines cut by a transversal are congruent, then the two lines are parallel
