Relationships Between Angles

Corresponding Angles (Lines Cut by a Transversal)

Two non-adjacent angles in the same plane formed by two lines cut by a transversal. One of the angles formed is an interior angle, the other an exterior angle, and the two angles are on the same side of the transversal.

Example

In these figures, angles 2 and 6 are corresponding angles.
