Read each question carefully and follow the instructions. Use the diagrams provided to help you answer the questions about transversal lines and the angles they form.
When a line (called a transversal) intersects two or more other lines, it creates several angles. Let's explore these angles!
1. In the diagram above, Line A and Line B are intersected by Transversal T. The line that cuts across two or more other lines is called a .
2. When a transversal intersects two parallel lines, the angles are equal.
3. Angles that are on opposite sides of the transversal and between the two lines are called interior angles.
4. In the diagram above, which pair of angles are corresponding angles?
Angle 1 and Angle 5
Angle 3 and Angle 6
Angle 4 and Angle 5
Angle 2 and Angle 7
5. Which of the following describes alternate exterior angles?
Angles on the same side of the transversal and between the parallel lines.
Angles on opposite sides of the transversal and outside the parallel lines.
Angles that add up to 90 degrees.
Angles that are adjacent and form a straight line.
6. If two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then the alternate interior angles are supplementary.
True
False
7. Consecutive interior angles are always congruent when lines are parallel.
True
False
8. In the diagram above, if angle A is 120 degrees, and the two horizontal lines are parallel, what is the measure of angle E? Explain your reasoning.
