Angle Relationships: Name Image Description

This document defines and describes different types of angle relationships: vertical angles, corresponding angles, alternate exterior angles, alternate interior angles, adjacent angles, complementary angles, and supplementary angles. Each type of angle relationship is explained and an example image is provided to illustrate the defining characteristics of that relationship. The key is that certain angle relationships result in equal angle measures depending on whether the lines are crossed by a transversal or share a side or vertex.

Angle Relationships

T he amount of space between two straight lines that have a common end point is

called angle. Two angles can be related if certain conditions are met. Here, we will
learn how to identify these kind of angles and use the correct term to describe them.

Name Image Description

The angles opposite each other when two lines cross. In


Vertical Angles the figure, the 1 and 3 are vertically opposite angles and
they are always equals. Same goes for angles 2 and 4.

The angles in matching corners when two lines are


crossed by another line, called the transversal. One is
Corresponding internal and the other external. They are equals if the
Angles two intersected lines by the transversal are parallel. In
the figure, angles 1 and 2 are corresponding. The 1 is
external and the 2 is internal.
Name Image Description

Angles that are on opposite sides of the transversal of


Alternate two other lines. Both are external. They are equals if the
Exterior Angles two intersected lines by the transversal are parallel. In
the figure, angles 1 and 4 are alternate exterior angles.

Angles that are on opposite sides of the transversal of


Alternate Interior two other lines. Both are internal. They are equals if the
Angles two intersected lines by the transversal are parallel. In
the figure, angles 2 and 3 are alternate interior angles.

Two angles which share a common vertex and side, but


Adjacent Angles have no common interior points. In the figure,
the  and  are adjacent angles.

Two angles are called complementary when their sum


Complementary
is 90º. In the figure, the  and  angles together form a
Angles
right angle.
Name Image Description

Two angles are called supplementary when their sum is


Supplementary
180º. In the figure, the  and  angles together form a
Angles
straight angle.
