Alternate Exterior Angles are created where a transversal crosses two (usually parallel) lines. Each pair of these angles are outside the parallel lines, and on opposite sides of the transversal.

What does alternate mean in math terms?

When a transversal line cuts through parallel lines it creates equal alternate 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. When a transversal intersects two lines, corresponding angles, alternate interior angles, and alternate exterior angles are congruent only if the lines are parallel. This is a fundamental property of parallel lines and transversals in geometry.

How do you make a working model of math?

you can make a working model of any polygons. first,draw any polygons (triangle,pentagon,hexagon etc....)and also draw its interior angles and exterior angles (note the polygons sum of the angles). then cut its exterior angles.then bring the all exterior angles(after the cut) togather.now you can make a circle. its means , the sum of the exteriorangles of any polygon =sum of the angles of a circle (360 degree = 360 degree)


What does corresponding angles mean in math terms?

When two lines are crossed by another line (called the Transversal): The angles in matching corners are called Corresponding Angles.


An exterior angle of a triangle is 180 degrees.?

No.Take a look at this picture...http://www.onemathematicalcat.org/Math/Geometry_obj/graphics/summing_exterior_angles.pngThe exterior angle + the interior angle = 180 degrees180 - the interior angle = the exterior angle
