Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

If two lines are parallel and a transversal intersects them, what is the sum of the interior angles on the same side of the transversal?
  • Step 1: Understand that parallel lines are lines that never meet and are always the same distance apart.
  • Step 2: Identify the transversal, which is a line that crosses the two parallel lines.
  • Step 3: Look at the angles formed on the same side of the transversal where it intersects the parallel lines.
  • Step 4: Recognize that the two angles on the same side of the transversal are called interior angles.
  • Step 5: Know that when two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, the interior angles on the same side add up to 180 degrees.
