Parallel lines form congruent alternate interior angles?

Parallel lines cut by a transversal form congruent alternate interior angles.


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 what are the lines?

The lines are parallel. The only time you will see correpsonding, alternate interior, and alternate exterior angles is with a parallel transversal line.


What is the converse of parallel lines conjecture?

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.


Are alternate interior angles congruent?

Only if the lines cut by the transversal are parallel.


Are alternate angles congruent?

Yes. Alternate interior and alternate exterior angles are congruent.


Uses of parallel lines cut by a transversal?

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.


If two parallel lines are cut by a transversal then the alternate interior angles are always?

Congruent


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.


If alternate interior angels are congruent then the lines are?

Then the lines are parallel to each other and the alternate equal angles are created when a transversal line cuts through parallel lines.


Alternate interior angles are?

they are congruent i think


Are the alternate interior angles of two parallel lines cut by a transveral always interior?

Yes. "Alternate interior" angles are always interior. Angles that are not interior as well as alternate are never accurately described as "alternate interior" angles.


Are all alternate interior angles congruent?

Sometimes they are.
