Question

Angles 4 and 6 are called alternate interior angles.

What do you notice about alternate interior angles?

Select all that apply.

They're on opposite sides

of the transversal.

Transversal

Exterior

They're inside the two

lines crossed by the

transversal.

Interior

They're on the same side

of the transversal.

Exterior

They're outside the two

lines crossed by the

transversal.

Answer 1

Explanation:

Two angles are alternate if they lie on the opposite sides of a transversal. The transversal is a line that cuts through two parallel horizontal lines. If the alternate angles are inside the two parallel lines, they are alternate interior angles. If the alternate angles are outside the two parallel lines, they are alternate exterior angles.

From the information given, angles 4 and 6 are called alternate interior angles. Therefore, the options that apply are:

1) They're on opposite sides of the transversal.

2) They're inside the two lines crossed by the transversal.
