Unit three

Question 1

Transversal

Answer 1

a line that intersects two or more coplanar lines

Question 2

Corresponding angles

Answer 2

lie on the same sides of the intersecting lines

Question 3

Alternate interior angles

Answer 3

non adjacent angles that lie on opposite sides of the transversal between intersected lines

Question 4

Consecutive interior angles or same side interior.

Answer 4

Lie on the same side of the transversal between the intersected lines.

Question 5

consecutive exterior angles

Answer 5

lie on the same sides of the transversal outside the intersected lines

Question 6

Alternate exterior angles

Answer 6

lie on the same sides of the transversal outside the intersecting lines

Question 7

Corresponding angles postulate

Answer 7

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

Question 8

Alternate interior angles theorem

Answer 8

If two parallel lines are but by a transversal then the pairs of alternate interior angles have the same measure.

Question 9

Consecutive interior angles theorem

Answer 9

if two parallel lines are but by a transversal then the pairs of consecutive interior angles are supplementary

Question 10

Alternate exterior angles therom

Answer 10

if two parallel lines are but by a transversal then the pairs of alternate exterior angles have the same measure

Question 11

Consecutive exterior angles therom

Answer 11

if two parallel lines are cut by a transversal then the pairs of consecutive exterior angles are supplementary

Question 12

exterior angles are always ______

Answer 12

supplementary

Question 13

Converse of the corresponding angles postulate

Answer 13

if two lines are cut by a transversal so that corresponding angles are congruent, then the lines are parallel

Question 14

Converse of the alternate interior angles therom

Answer 14

if two lines are but by a transversal so that alternate interior angles are congruent, then the lines are parallel

Question 15

Transitive property of parallel lines therom

Answer 15

if two lines are parallel to the same line then they are parallel to each other

Question 16

Perpendicular bisector theorem

Answer 16

In a plane if a point is on the perpendicular bisector of a segment then it is equal in distance from the endpoints of the endpoints of the segment

Question 17

Converse of the perpendicular bisector therom

Answer 17

if a point is equidistant from the endpoints of a segment then it lies on the perpendicular bisector of the segment

Question 18

Perpendicular postulate

Answer 18

if there is a line and a point that is not on the line there is exactly one line through the point that is perpendicular to the given line

Question 19

Perpendicular transversal theorem

Answer 19

If a line is perpendicular to one of two parallel lines, then it is perpendicular to the other line
