Q1
A transversal intersects two parallel lines creating a pair of corresponding angles. If one of the angles measures 120 degrees, what is the measure of the corresponding angle?
60 degrees
120 degrees
90 degrees
30 degrees
Corresponding angles are equal when a transversal intersects two parallel lines. Therefore, the corresponding angle also measures 120 degrees.
