All the angles created by the transversal intersecting through a pair of parallel lines have got many names and connections with each other, like Alternate Angles, Corresponding angles, consecutive interior angles etc.
As per the question statement, We are given a pair of parallel lines which is cut by a transversal. We are supposed to mark the following angles.
Alternate Interior Angles, Alternate Exterior Angles, Corresponding Angles and Consecutive Interior Angles.
Here is an attached image of the same with angles marked on it.
Alternate Interior Angles: ∠ = ∠

Alternate Exterior Angles: ∠=∠

Corresponding Angles: ∠=∠

- Parallel Lines: Parallel lines are those straight lines that are, no matter how far they are extended, always the same distance apart from one another.
- Transversal Line: In geometry, a transversal line intersects two lines in the same plane at two different locations.

Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
Firstly, the question is phrased very very badly as the four answers provided are coordinate points rather than how far apart the cities are in units.
To calculate the distance between two points, we have to use Pythagoras' Theorem as it's just pretty much a right-angle triangle. Please look at the (terribly drawn) image provided.
Keep in mind that these points are only roughly placed on the map.
But firstly, to use Pythagoras' Theorem (a^2 + b^2 = c^2), we must find the length of the two sides.
To find the length of the horizontal line (which from now on I'll refer to as 'a'), we must subtract the smaller x value from the larger one.
47 - 35 = 12
To find the length of the vertical line (which from now on I'll refer to as 'b'), we must subtract the smaller y value from the larger one.
122 - 78 = 44
I assume that the answer you should pick is D. (12, 44)
However, that doesn't exactly answer the question... it's worded a little weirdly.
To solve the rest of the equation, do the following:
Now that we know that the length of a = 12 and the length of b = 44, we can use Pythagoras' Theorem.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
12^2 + 44^2 = c^2
144 + 1936 = c^2
2080 = c^2
c =
c = 45.61
The answer is 45.61 units.
