Review the definitions of the types of angles pairs that can be formed by a transversal.
alternate exterior angles
To determine what type of relationship the pair of highlighted angles has, we should consider the types of angles pairs that can be formed by a transversal. Let's examine the given angles ∠4 and ∠5.
From the diagram, we can see that the angles ∠4 and ∠5 are both exterior. Moreover, they lie on the opposite side of the transversal. They must be alternate exterior angles.
