Angles are in similar positions on the same side of a transversal?
Corresponding
How many Alternate interior angles are formed when the transversal cuts two coplanar lines?
Two pairs of alternate opposite angles
What is a pair of angles in similar locations when two lines are intersected by a transversal?
corresponding angles
What angles do not intersect and are coplanar?
Angles that are separated by a distance. For example, any two angles of any polygon do not intersect and they are coplanar.
What are corresponding and alternate angles?
Parallel lines can have a line crossing both of them. They call that the transversal. Corresponding angles are on the same side of the transversal. Alternate are on opposite sides of the transversal.

When two coplanar lines are cut by transversal the angles between the two lines on opposite sides of the transversal are called what?
Alternate Interior Angles
How many Alternate interior angles are formed when the transversal cuts two coplanar lines?

corresponding angles
What angles are in similar positons on the same side of a transversal?
I believe those would be corresponding angles?
What angles are two angles that are formed by two lines and a transversal and occupy corresponding positions?
Providing that the two lines are parallel then they are called corresponding angles.
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.
When there is a transversal of two lines the three lines are coplanar?
Normally, yes. A transversal contemplates crossing two (normally parallel) lines in conversations about two dimensional space and the relationship of certain angles. If you are talking about three dimensions, all bets are off. Two skewed lines in three dimensional space could would have a line that connects them but none of them would be coplanar.
Are vertical angles coplanar?
Yes, the opposite rays of vertical angles are always coplanar, so the angles are as well.
Why is alternate interior angles similar to corresponding angles?
Because when a transversal line cuts through parallel lines it creates vertical opposite equal angles.
What angles do not intersect and are coplanar?
Angles that are separated by a distance. For example, any two angles of any polygon do not intersect and they are coplanar.
What are the angles if 2 parallel lines are cut by a transversal?
A pair of parallel lines with a transversal will have the following pairs of angles. Alternate , Corresponding, Allied internal, allied external and Vertically Opposite. Unfortunately I cannot draw a diagram on this site in order to show you the positions of these angle - pairs.
