In the adjoining figure, each angle is shown by a letter. Fill in the boxes with the help of the figure.


Corresponding angles.


(1) p and [ ] (2) q and [ ]


(3) r and [ ] (4) s and [ ]


Interior alternate angles.


(5) s and [ ] (6) w and [ ]



• Given: Line q is transversal is to line m and line l.


• To find corresponding angles of


1) p


2) q


3) r


4) s


• Explanation:


If we go by the definition, the definition of corresponding angels tells us, if the arms on the transversal of a pair of angles are in the same direction and the other arms are on the same side of the transversal, then it is called a pair of corresponding angles.


So, now in the above given figure we have say, line q making transversal to line m and line l.


1) For p, w is the angle which is in the same side and same direction of transversal so w is the corresponding angle to p.


2) For q, x is the angle which is in the same side and same direction of transversal so x is the corresponding angle to q.


3) For r, y is the angle which is in the same side and same direction of transversal so r is the corresponding angle to y.


4) For s, z is the angle which is in the same side and same direction of transversal so s is the corresponding angle to z.


Now for Interior Alternate angles


Pairs of angles which are on the opposite sides of transversal and their arms on the transversal show opposite directions is called a pair of alternate angles.


When these angels are in the inner side they are called Interior alternate angels.


5) For s the angel which is in the inner side as well as on the opposite side of transversal and it’s arm show opposite direction is x. So s and x form pair of Interior Alternate angel.


6) For w the angel which is in the inner side as well as on the opposite side of transversal and it’s arm show opposite direction is r. So w and r form pair of Interior Alternate angel.
