  • B.equal
  • C.complementary
  • D.right
3.
Co-interior angles are:
  • A.equal
  • B.supplementary
  • C.complementary
  • D.vertical
4.
The sum of co-interior angles is:
  • A.$90^\circ$
  • B.$180^\circ$
  • C.$360^\circ$
  • D.$45^\circ$
5.

Section B — Short Answer (2 marks) 4 × 2 = 8 marks
6.
Parallel lines cut by a transversal: an alternate angle is $65^\circ$. Find its pair.
7.
Co-interior angles: one is $110^\circ$. Find the other.
8.
A corresponding angle is $80^\circ$. Find its pair.
9.
What is the sum of a pair of co-interior angles?
Section C — Short Answer (3 marks) 4 × 3 = 12 marks
10.
$l\parallel m$; a transversal makes $3x$ with $l$ and co-interior $2x$ with $m$. Find $x$.
11.
Two parallel lines cut by a transversal: one angle is $75^\circ$. Find its alternate and co-interior partners.
12.
If alternate interior angles are equal, what can you conclude about the lines?
13.
Find the angle corresponding to a $50^\circ$ angle.
Section D — Long Answer (5 marks) 2 × 5 = 10 marks
14.
$l\parallel m$; a transversal makes angles $(2x+10)^\circ$ and a co-interior angle $(3x-30)^\circ$. Find $x$ and both angles.
15.
Prove that if a transversal makes a pair of alternate interior angles equal, the two lines are parallel.
