Parallel lines s and t are cut by a transversal r. Parallel lines s and t are cut by transversal r. Clockwise from top left, the
angles formed with r and s are 1, 2, 3, 4; the angles formed with r and t are 5, 6, 7, 8. Which angles are corresponding angles?

Answer:
The corresponding angles are:
∠ 1 and ∠ 5
∠ 2 and ∠ 6
∠ 3 and ∠ 7
∠ 4 and ∠ 8
Step-by-step explanation:
When two parallel lines are crossed by another line, the angles in matching corners are called corresponding angles and they are equal in measures
∵ Lines s and t are parallel
∴ s // t
∵ Line r intersects lines s and t
∴ Line r is the transversal
∵ Corresponding angles are formed
- Look to the attached figure
∴ ∠ 1 ≅ ∠ 5 ⇒ corresponding angles
∴ ∠ 2 ≅ ∠ 6 ⇒ corresponding angles
∴ ∠ 3 ≅ ∠ 7 ⇒ corresponding angles
∴ ∠ 4 ≅ ∠ 8 ⇒ corresponding angles
The corresponding angles are:
∠ 1 and ∠ 5
∠ 2 and ∠ 6
∠ 3 and ∠ 7
∠ 4 and ∠ 8
