What Is Meant by Consecutive Angles

When two lines are cut by a transversal, the pair of angles on one side of the transversal and inside the two lines are called the consecutive interior angles

What are consecutive angles?

What are Consecutive Angles? A pair of angles formed on each side of the transversal when it interacts with two parallel lines are known as consecutive angles. The angles in the same region (either interior or exterior) on each of the parallel lines form consecutive angles pairs.

Do consecutive angles equal 180?

The consecutive interior angles theorem states that when the two lines are parallel, then the consecutive interior angles are supplementary to each other. Supplementary means that the two angles add up to 180 degrees.
