Question

This diagram of airport runway intersections shows two parallel runways. A taxiway crosses both runways.

How are <7 AND <3 related?


a.
alternate interior angles
c.
corresponding angles
b.
same-side interior angles
d.
none of these

Answer 1

The 2 parallel runways, are "intersected" by another runway.

The following pairs of angles are called
`corresponding \ angles`:

1 and 5; 2 and 6; 3 and 7; 6 and 8.

Thus angles 7 and 3 are corresponding angles.


Note: 7 and 3 are also called F angles, because of the shape F formed by those angles and the transversal.


Answer: b corresponding angles
