Question

Use the figure to answer the question.



An inclined transversal passes through two vertical parallel lines labeled upper M and upper N. The angles formed around the intersection point of upper M are labeled clockwise, starting from the upper left quadrant: 1, 2, 4, and 3. The corresponding angles formed around the intersection point of upper N are labeled clockwise, starting from the upper left quadrant: 5, 6, 8, and 7.
Using facts about the angles formed when parallel lines are cut by a transversal, what relationship can you establish between angle 5 and angle 1?(1 point)

Answer 1

corresponding angles

Angles 1 and 5 occupy the same relative position (upper-left) at each intersection with the transversal, so they are corresponding and therefore congruent.
