Select the diagram showing a pair of corresponding angles:

Two parallel lines are intersected by a transversal. The angles that are denoted with a peach-colored arc markings, are located on the same side of the transversal and outside the two parallel lines.

A

Two parallel lines are intersected by a transversal. The angles that are denoted with a purple-colored arc markings, are located on the same side of the transversal and inside the two parallel lines.

B

Two parallel lines are intersected by a transversal. The angles that are denoted with a green-colored arc markings, are located on the same side of the transversal, similarly positioned relative to the intersection.

C

Two parallel lines are intersected by a transversal. The angles that are denoted with a yellow-colored arc markings, are located on opposite sides of the transversal and inside the two parallel lines.

Outcomes

G.RLT.2

The student will analyze, prove, and justify the relationships of parallel lines cut by a transversal.

G.RLT.2a

Prove and justify angle pair relationships formed by two parallel lines and a transversal, including: i) corresponding angles; ii) alternate interior angles; iii) alternate exterior angles; iv) same-side (consecutive) interior angles; and v) same-side (consecutive) exterior angles.

G.RLT.2c

Solve problems by using the relationships between pairs of angles formed by the intersection of two parallel lines and a transversal.
