Parallell lines yield congruent alternate interior angles

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If a transversal intersects two parallel lines, the alternate interior angles are equal. If two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, the sum of the complementary angles is 180˚. If a transversal intersects two parallel lines, the vertical angles are supplementary. If two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, the sum of the alternate exterior angles 180˚.
