If two lines are cut by a transversal to form pairs of congruent corresponding angles, congruent alternate interior angles, or congruent alternate exterior angles, then the lines are parallel.
A. Corresponding parts of similar triangles are similar.B. Alternate interior angles are supplementary.C. Alternate interior angles are congruent.D. Corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent
Same-side interior angles are supplementary. They are not always congruent, but in a regular polygon adjacent angles are congruent.
Then the lines are parallel to each other and the alternate equal angles are created when a transversal line cuts through parallel lines.
Both alternate interior and alternate exterior angle pairs lie on opposite sides of the transversal.
Yes. Alternate interior and alternate exterior angles are congruent.
Parallel lines cut by a transversal form congruent alternate interior angles.
they are congruent i think
The lines are parallel. The only time you will see correpsonding, alternate interior, and alternate exterior angles is with a parallel transversal line.
Sometimes they are.
If two lines are cut by a transversal to form pairs of congruent corresponding angles, congruent alternate interior angles, or congruent alternate exterior angles, then the lines are parallel.
There's lots of useful things you can discover when parallel lines are cut by a transversal, most of them having to do with angle relationships. Corresponding angles are congruent, alternate interior angles are congruent, same side or consecutive interior angles are supplementary, alternate exterior angles are congruent, and vertical angles are congruent.
The alternate interior angle theorem states that when two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, the alternate interior angles formed are congruent. In other words, if two parallel lines are crossed by a third line, then the pairs of alternate interior angles are equal in measure.
Congruent
A. Corresponding parts of similar triangles are similar.B. Alternate interior angles are supplementary.C. Alternate interior angles are congruent.D. Corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent
It is the transversal line that cuts through parallel lines creating alternate equal angles.
Not NecessarilyAlternate interior angles are congruent, or equal. They have the same angle measure, while complementary means they add up to 90 degrees. Therefore, the only time alternate interior angles are complementary is when they are exactly 45 degrees.
