Answer:

Corresponding angles

Explanation:

The name of these angels lying in the same position are called corresponding angle.

These angles are equal. When we talk of parallel lines, they are sets of lines that travel in the same direction but never meet. The third line that cuts through the two sets of parallel lines is referred to as the transversal line.

So the positions of these angles on each of the set of the parallel lines are equal in each of the cases and they are equal and are referred to as being corresponding to each other
