Term
If two parallel planes are cut by a third plane,
Definition
then the lines of intersection are parallel.
Term
If two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then alternate interior (exterior) angles
Definition
are congruent.
Term
If two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then same-side interior angles
Definition
are supplementary.
Term
If a transversal is perpendicular to one of two parallel lines,
Definition
then it is perpendicular to the other one also.
Term
If two lines are cut by a transversal and alternate interior (exterior) angles are congruent,
Definition
then the lines are parallel.
Term
If two lines are cut by a transversal and same-side supplementary angles are supplementary,
Definition
then the lines are parallel.
Term
