Math Problem Statement
Solution
In this diagram, the lines and are parallel, and is the transversal intersecting these lines. Corresponding angles are pairs of angles that are in matching corners when a transversal crosses two parallel lines.
To identify corresponding angles in this case:
- is an angle on the top-right of the transversal between the parallel lines.
- The angle that corresponds to on the lower parallel line would be , as it occupies the same relative position on the other side of the transversal.
Therefore, the correct answer is:
and .
