Transversal Definition: A line intersecting two or more other lines in a plane. Picture:
Corresponding Angles Definition: Angles that are in the same relative position. Picture:
Corresponding Angles Conjecture Conjecture: If two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, the corresponding angles are congruent. Picture:
Alternate Interior Angles Definition: On the “inside” and opposite side of the transversal. Picture: ∠4 and ∠5 𝐨𝐫∠6 and ∠3
Alternate Interior Angles Conjecture Conjecture: If two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then the alternate interior angles are congruent. Picture:
Alternate Exterior Angles Definition: On the “outside” and opposite side of the transversal. Picture: ∠1 and ∠8 𝐨𝐫 ∠7 and ∠2
Alternate Exterior Angles Conjecture Conjecture: If two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then the alternate exterior angles are congruent. Picture:
