What is a line that intersects two parallel lines?
a transversal line If a transversal intersects two parallel lines, then the alternate interior angles are congruent.
How do you calculate transversal lines?
Transversal lines are not parallel and so have a gradient that is different to that of the given lines.
What does transversal lines mean?
They are lines that cut through parallel lines
What is a line cuts parallel lines?
transversal
Can all alternate interior and corresponding angles formed by two parallel lines and a transversal be congruent?
Sure. Just as long as the transversal is perpendicular to the parallel lines.
Tell the difference between transversal lines and parallel lines?
The transversal is the line that cuts the parallel line.
What are lines opposite of the transversal lines?
Either parallel lines or longitudinal lines are opposite transversal lines.
What are transversal lines?
Transversal lines are made when one line crosses two parallel lines.
Does a transversal line have to intersect with two parallel lines?
Yes, a transversal line always intersects two parallel lines.
What is a line that intersects parallel lines?
a transversal line If a transversal intersects two parallel lines, then the alternate interior angles are congruent.
What does transversal lines mean?
They are lines that cut through parallel lines
When two parallel lines are cut by a transversal angles are supplementary?
When Two parallel lines are cut by the transversal, __________ angles are supplementary
If two lines are cut by a transversal so that corresponding angles are congruent?
If two parallel lines are intersected by a transversal, then the corresponding angles are congruent. This is the transversal postulate. So the answer is the lines would be parallel. This means that the statement is true.
What are transversal angles?
I think it is when there are 2 parallel lines, then the lines which cut both is called transversal.so, the angles which are between one side of the transversal and a parallel line must be called a transversal angles.
What is transversal angle?
They are angles formed by the transversal line cutting through parallel lines
What are examples of transversal lines in the real world?
Transversal lines cut through or touch parallel lines as for example support sleepers on a rail track or transversal supports on a gate
Is it true that if two lines are crossed by a transversal the two lines are parallel?
A transversal is simply any line that passes through two or more coplanar lines each at different points. So picture, if you will, two lines that are clearly not parallel. I can easily construct a transversal that passes through them. HOWEVER, if two parallel lines are intersected by a transversal, then the corresponding angles are congruent. This is called the transversal postulate. If the corresponding angles are congruent, than the lines are parallel. This is the converse of the first postulate. So, the answer to your question is NO, unless the corresponding angles are congruent.
