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.What is the relationship between angle 3 and angle 6?(1 point)Responses alternate interior angles alternate interior angles alternate exterior angles alternate exterior angles vertical angles vertical angles corresponding angles

To determine the relationship between angle 3 and angle 6 in the scenario described with two vertical parallel lines and a transversal, we need to identify their positions relative to each other.

Based on the labeling:

  • Angle 3 is located at the intersection of line M (upper M).
  • Angle 6 is located at the intersection of line N (upper N).

Since angle 3 is on the inside of the two parallel lines (M and N) and above them while angle 6 is also on the inside but below the upper line N (to the right of angle 5), angles 3 and 6 are positioned such that they are on alternate sides of the transversal, and they lie between the two parallel lines.

Thus, angle 3 and angle 6 are alternate interior angles.

Therefore, the correct response is:

alternate interior angles.
