Are the labeled angles interior or exterior?
∠1 and ∠2: same-side interior angles
∠3 and ∠4: corresponding angles
∠5 and ∠6: corresponding angles
Before we consider the pairs of highlighted angles, let's review the definitions of the types of angles pairs that can be formed by a transversal.
Look at the angles that are labeled ∠1 and ∠2.
Analyzing them, we can see that both ∠1 and ∠2 are interior and they lie on same side of the transversal. They must be same-side interior angles.
Now, consider the angles labeled ∠3 and ∠4.
We can see that ∠4 is interior, but ∠3 is exterior and they are on the same side of the transversal. They are corresponding angles.
Finally, let's consider the angles labeled ∠5 and ∠6.
We can see that ∠5 is interior, but ∠6 is exterior and they are on the same side of the transversal. Therefore, they are also corresponding angles.
