What does corresponding lines mean?
When two lines are crossed by another line (called the Transversal)
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 it mean if two parallel lines are intersected by a transversal?
There is no deep meaning to it.
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.
What does alternate exterior angle mean?
When two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, the two pairs of angles on opposite sides of the transversal and outside the parallel lines, and the angles in each pair are congruent.
What are lines opposite of the transversal lines?
Either parallel lines or longitudinal lines are opposite transversal lines.
What does corresponding lines mean?
When two lines are crossed by another line (called the Transversal)
What are transversal lines?
Transversal lines are made when one line crosses two parallel lines.
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 it mean if two parallel lines are intersected by a transversal?
There is no deep meaning to it.
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
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.
What does alternate exterior angle mean?
When two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, the two pairs of angles on opposite sides of the transversal and outside the parallel lines, and the angles in each pair are congruent.
Tell the difference between transversal lines and parallel lines?
The transversal is the line that cuts the parallel line.
What is a transversal angle?
A Transversal angle is a line that intersects a system of lines.
Does a transversal line have to intersect with two parallel lines?
Yes, a transversal line always intersects two parallel lines.
When two lines are cut by a transversal the angles between the two lines and on opposite sides of the transversal?
Alternate Exterior Angles :)
