Parallel lines r and s are cut by two transversals, parallel lines t and u.

Lines r and s are crossed by lines t and u to form 16 angles. Clockwise from top left, at the intersection of r and t, the angles are 1, 2, 3, 4; at the intersection of s and t, 5, 6, 7, 8; at the intersection of u and s, 9, 10, 11, 12; at the intersection of u and r, 13, 14, 15, 16.

Which angles are corresponding angles with angle 8?
Angle4 and Angle12
Angle2 and Angle10
Angle6 and Angle14
Angle3 and Angle9

To identify the pairs of corresponding angles, we need to recall that corresponding angles are formed when two parallel lines are crossed by a transversal. Corresponding angles are located in the same relative position at each intersection.

In this scenario, the lines r and s are parallel, and lines t and u are the transversals. Let's label the angles based on the given intersections:

  • At the intersection of r and t:

    • Angle 1 (top left, clockwise)
    • Angle 2 (top right)
    • Angle 3 (bottom right)
    • Angle 4 (bottom left)
  • At the intersection of s and t:

    • Angle 5 (top left)
    • Angle 6 (top right)
    • Angle 7 (bottom right)
    • Angle 8 (bottom left)
  • At the intersection of u and s:

    • Angle 9 (top left)
    • Angle 10 (top right)
    • Angle 11 (bottom right)
    • Angle 12 (bottom left)
  • At the intersection of u and r:

    • Angle 13 (top left)
    • Angle 14 (top right)
    • Angle 15 (bottom right)
    • Angle 16 (bottom left)

Now, we wish to find the angles that are corresponding to angle 8 (which is located at the intersection of s and t).

Since angle 8 is located at the bottom left of intersection s and t, we need to find the angle that is also at the bottom left position at another intersection.

  1. At the intersection of r and t, the bottom left angle is angle 4.
  2. At the intersection of u and s, the bottom left angle is angle 12.
  3. At the intersection of u and r, the bottom left angle is angle 16.

Thus:

  • Angle 4 corresponds to angle 8
  • Angle 12 corresponds to angle 8

From the options provided:

  • Angle 4 and Angle 12 are both the corresponding angles with angle 8.

So, the answer is: Angle 4 and Angle 12.
