parallel lines help

OpenStudy (jeff666):

with what

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (jeff666):

When parallel lines get crossed by another line (which is called a transversal), you can see that many angles are the same

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so just because there parallel?

OpenStudy (jeff666):

the transversal gives off the same angle for 1 and 2 so you know the two lines are parallel

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it askes for a reason though?

OpenStudy (jeff666):

that is the reason the transversal would be the reason

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the term i was looking for was alternate interior angles

OpenStudy (jeff666):

ohh ok so it didnt want the transversal
