Question

In the given diagram, ∠OOB and ∠OOP are called ________.

• A. corresponding angles
• B. alternate interior angles
• C. alternate exterior angles
• D. interior angles on the same side of the transversal

Answer 1

The correct option is B

alternate interior angles

A simple way to identify alternate interior angles is to remember that it appears on the alternate sides of the transversal and on the interior of the other two lines.

In case the transversal intersects a pair of parallel lines, then, the two angles which form a pair of alternate interior angles are equal.
