Question: In a transversal intersecting two parallel lines, if one of the alternate interior angles is 85 degrees, what is the measure of the other alternate interior angle?

Options:

  1. 95 degrees
  2. 85 degrees
  3. 75 degrees
  4. 180 degrees

Correct Answer: 85 degrees

Solution:

Alternate interior angles are equal when two parallel lines are cut by a transversal. Thus, the other alternate interior angle also measures 85 degrees.

Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

In a transversal intersecting two parallel lines, if one of the alternate interior angles is 85 degrees, what is the measure of the other alternate interior angle?
  • Step 1: Identify the two parallel lines and the transversal that intersects them.
  • Step 2: Locate the alternate interior angles formed by the transversal and the parallel lines.
  • Step 3: Note that alternate interior angles are equal when two parallel lines are cut by a transversal.
  • Step 4: Since one of the alternate interior angles is given as 85 degrees, the other alternate interior angle must also be 85 degrees.
  • Alternate Interior Angles – When two parallel lines are intersected by a transversal, the pairs of alternate interior angles are equal.
