Angles Between Parallel Lines

Practice flashcards covering the vocabulary, specific line identifiers, and definitions related to angles formed by parallel lines and transversals.

Angles between parallel lines

The angles formed when two parallel lines are cut by a secant line.

Lines $BD$ and $CE$

The specific lines identified as parallel in the lecture notes diagram.

Line $AF$

The line identified as the secant that cuts across the parallel lines.

Vertically opposite angles

Angles formed when two lines cross; they are located in front of each other relative to the vertex and measure the same.

Corresponding angles

Angles that occupy the same position and are on the same side of the transversal when it cuts two parallel lines; these angles are equal.

Alternate interior angles

Angles located inside the parallel lines and on opposite sides of the transversal; they have the same measurement.

Alternate exterior angles

Angles located outside the parallel lines and on opposite sides of the transversal; they are equal in measure.
