  • A transversal is a line that intersects two or more lines at distinct points
  • When a transversal cuts two lines, 8 angles are formed
2

Properties of Parallel Lines

  • When two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, corresponding angles are equal
  • Alternate interior angles are equal when lines are parallel
  • Alternate exterior angles are equal when lines are parallel
3

Tests for Parallel Lines

  • If corresponding angles are equal, then the lines are parallel
  • If alternate interior angles are equal, then the lines are parallel
  • If co-interior angles are supplementary, then the lines are parallel
4

Applications and Problem Solving
