Question

Check My Answer?
Lines f and g are parallel lines cut by the transversal d. Therefore, angle 3 and angle 6 are referred to as ____________________ angles.
A. corresponding
B. alternate exterior <-
c. VERTICAL
D. alternate interior

Answer 1

1. Angles on the inside of the parallel lines are called "interior" angles.
2. Angles on the outside of the parallel lines are called "exterior" angles.
3. Angles on the same side of the transversal are called "same-side" angles.
4. Angles on different sides of the transversal are called "alternate" angles.

Look at angles 3 and 6 and their position with respect to the parallel lines. They are inside the parallel lines, so according to 1. above, they are interior angles.
Now look again at angles 3 and 6 and their position with respect to the transversal. They are on different sides of the transversal, so according to 4. above, they are alternate angles.

The complete name is "alternate interior angles".

Answer 2

so it was alternate interior

Answer 3

correct
