Angle Relationship

Corresponding Angles

● The corresponding angles definition tells us that

when two parallel lines are intersected by a third
one, the angles that occupy the same relative
position at each intersection are known to be
corresponding angles to each other.
Alternate Exterior Angles
● Alternate Exterior Angles are a pair of
angles on the outer side of each of those two
lines but on opposite sides of the transversal
● Transversal is a line that goes through two
parallel lines.
● The alternate exterior angle theorem states
that if two lines are parallel and are
intersected by a transversal, then the
alternate exterior angles are considered
as congruent angles or angles of equal
measure.
Alternate Interior Angles
● When two parallel lines are crossed by a
transversal, the pair of angles formed on the
inner side of the parallel lines, but on the
opposite sides of the transversal are called
alternate interior angles.
● These angles are always equal.
Same Side Interior Angles
● The theorem for the "same side interior
angle theorem" states: If a transversal
intersects two parallel lines, each pair of
same-side interior angles are
supplementary (their sum is 180°)
Vertical Angles
● Vertical angles theorem or vertically
opposite angles theorem states that two
opposite vertical angles formed when
two lines intersect each other are
always equal (congruent) to each other.
Linear Pair
● When two lines intersect each other at a
single point, linear pairs of angles are
formed. If the angles so formed are adjacent
to each other after the intersection of the two
lines, the angles are said to be linear.
● If two angles form a linear pair, the angles are
supplementary, whose measures add up to
180°. Hence, a linear pair of angles always
add up to 180°.
Triangle Proportionality Theorem (Side Splitter Theorem)
● If a line parallel to one side of a triangle
intersects the other two sides of the triangle,
then the line divides these two sides
proportionally.
