A transversal is simply a line that crosses through 2 other lines. When through to parallel lines, it creates series of congruent and supplementary angles.

What else can I help you with?
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 are transversal lines?
Transversal lines are made when one line crosses two parallel lines.
What are lines opposite of the transversal lines?
Either parallel lines or longitudinal lines are opposite transversal lines.
Tell the difference between transversal lines and parallel lines?
The transversal is the line that cuts the parallel line.
What are transversal and corresponding angles?
A transversal line cuts through parallel lines forming equal corresponding angles
What is alternate exterior angles in math terms?
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.
What are transversal contracts?
transversal contract
A transversal creates pairs of?
transversal creates pairs of
What is the circumference of a transversal?
A transversal is a straight line and so it has no circumference.
What is a angle cut but a transversal?
What is a angle on the opposite side of the transversal
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.
What is a transversal?
A transversal is a line that crosses more than one line.
What is a transversal angle?
A Transversal angle is a line that intersects a system of lines.
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 is transversal angle?
They are angles formed by the transversal line cutting through parallel lines
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.
