Grade 7 Math Test Questions: Identifying Corresponding Angles.

📚 Quick Study Guide

📐
• Corresponding Angles: These are angles that occupy the same relative position at each intersection where a transversal crosses two lines. Imagine them as being in the 'same corner'.
🧭
• Transversal: A line that intersects two or more other lines. Think of it as the line 'cutting across' the others.
📈
• Parallel Lines: If the two lines intersected by the transversal are parallel, then the corresponding angles are congruent (equal).
💡
• Non-Parallel Lines: If the two lines intersected by the transversal are not parallel, the corresponding angles are not necessarily congruent.
🧮
• Identifying Corresponding Angles: Look for angles that are on the same side of the transversal and in corresponding positions (above, below, left, or right) relative to the two lines.
