Transversals
Transversals and interior and exterior angles
| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Same Side Interior Angles | Angles that are on located on the same side of the transversal and the inside of the parallel lines. |
| Same Side Exterior Angles | Angles that are on the same side of the transversal and the outside of the parallel lines. |
| Alternate Interior Angles | Angles that are on opposite sides of the transversal and are on the interior of the parallel lines. |
| Alternate Exterior Angles | Angles that are on opposite sides of the transversal and the outside of the parallel lines. |
| Transversals | A line that intersects parallel lines and creates specific angle pairs. |
| Congruent | Angles that are the same. |
| Vertical Angles | Angles that are across from each other and touching. |
| Linear Pair | Angles that are side by side and create a line. |
| Supplementary Angles | Angles that degrees add up to equal 180. |
| 180 Degrees | Linear pair and Supplementary Angles |
| Parallel Lines | Two lines that never intersect. |
| Obtuse | An angle larger than 90 degrees. |
| Acute | An angle less than 90 degrees. |
| Corresponding Angles | Angles that have the same measurement and are in the same position on the transversal. |
