You will learn to identify the relationships among pairs of interior and exterior angles formed by two parallel lines and a transversal.

4. Parallel Lines and Transversals
In geometry, a line, line segment, or ray that intersects two or more lines at
different points is called a __________
transversal B A l m 1 2 4 3 5 6 8 7
is an example of a transversal. It intercepts lines l and m.
Note all of the different angles formed at the points of intersection.

5. Parallel Lines and Transversals
Definition of
Transversal
In a plane, a line is a transversal iff it intersects two or more
Lines, each at a different point.
The lines cut by a transversal may or may not be parallel. l m 1 2 3 4 5 7 6 8
Parallel Lines
t is a transversal for l and m. t 1 2 3 4 5 7 6 8 b c
Nonparallel Lines
r is a transversal for b and c. r

6. Parallel Lines and Transversals
Two lines divide the plane into three regions.
The region between the lines is referred to as the interior.
The two regions not between the lines is referred to as the exterior.
Exterior
Interior
