Which type of angles are shown in the figure below?
Alternate angles are a pair of angles that can be found on the opposite side of a line that cuts two parallel lines.
Furthermore, these angles are located on the opposite level of the corresponding line that they belong to.
Alternate
If one of two corresponding angles is a right angle, then the other angle will also be a right angle.
Alternate angles require parallel lines cut by a transversal and are on opposite sides of the transversal. Vertical angles are formed by two intersecting lines and face each other directly.
Yes! When parallel lines are cut by a transversal, alternate angles are always equal. If they're not equal, then the lines aren't truly parallel.
Alternate interior angles are between the parallel lines, while alternate exterior angles are outside them. Both types are still on opposite sides of the transversal.
The transversal is the line that cuts through both parallel lines. Look for the diagonal line that intersects the two horizontal parallel lines in your figure.
Absolutely! If you can show that alternate angles are equal, then you can conclude that the lines cut by the transversal are parallel. It works both ways!
