Justify your calculation. ______</p><p>Relevant Vocabulary Alternate Interior Angles: Let line be a transversal to lines and such that intersects at point and intersects at point . Let be a point on , and be a point on such that the points and lie in opposite half-planes of . Then the angle and the angle are called alternate interior angles of the transversal with respect to and . Corresponding Angles:Let line be a transversal to lines and .If and are alternate interior angles, and and are vertical angles, then and are corresponding angles.</p><p>Example 1 Given a pair of lines and in a plane (see the diagram below), a third line is called a transversal if it intersects at a single point and intersects at a single but different point. The two lines and are parallel if and only if the following types of angle pairs are congruent or supplementary:</p><p>. Corresponding Angles are equal in measure</p><p>______.
