Definition
Angles in matching positions where a transversal crosses two lines. When the lines are parallel, corresponding angles are equal.
Examples
- If one corresponding angle is 110°, the other is also 110°.
- They sit in the same position at each crossing, like top-right and top-right.
Key rule
Parallel lines make corresponding angles equal.
Memory hook
Same position, each intersection, equal angles.
