Define the following: a. Exterior and Interior Angles b. Consecutive Interior Angles c. Alternate Exterior and Interior Angles d. Corresponding Angles
a. Exterior angles are those that lie on the far outer parts of the lines being intersected by a transversal. Interior angles are those that lie within the lines being intersected by a transversal. b. Consecutive Interior angles are those that are on the same side of the transversal and are within the lines being intersected by a transversal. c. Alternate Exterior angles are those that lie on the outer parts of the lines being cut by the transversal and are on opposite sides of the transversal. Alternate Interior angles are those that lie on the inside of the lines being cut by a transversal and are on opposite sides of the transversal. d. Corresponding Angles are those that lie on the same side of the transversal and respectively lie on the same position upon the lines that are being intersected.

Answer the following a. The measure of ∠A is nine less than the measure of ∠B. If ∠A and ∠B for a linear pare, what are their measures? b. The measure of an angle's complement is 17 more than the measure of the angle. Find the measurement of the angle and its complement.
a. ∠A = 85.5 degrees, ∠B = 94.5 degrees b. The measurement of the angle is 36.5 degrees, which makes its complement 53.5 degrees.

Write the converse, inverse, and contrapositive of the following conditional statement. Determine whether the conditional is true or false. If false, find a counterexample. If two angles are congruent angles, then they have the same measure.
Converse: If two angles have the same measure, then they are congruent angles. Inverse: If two angles are not congruent angles, then they do not have the same measure. Contrapositive: If two angles do not have the same measure, then they are not congruent angles. The conditional is true.
