Are segments QP and RS parallel?
They do not intersect!
P
Q
R
S
But they are parts of lines PQ and RS, which
are not parallel..
Thus, the answer is no!

Theorem
If two parallel planes are cut by a third plane,
then the lines of intersection are parallel.

Transversal
A line that intersects two or more coplanar
lines in different points.
t
t is a transversal
The lines do not need to be parallel to have a transversal !
Interior Angles and Exterior Angles
Exterior angles 1, 2, 7, and 8.
Interior angles 3, 4, 5, and 6.

Alternate Interior Angles(Alt. Int <‘s)
Two nonadjacent interior angles on opposite
sides of the transversal.

Finding a transversal
Trace each < identified.
The line you touch twice is the transversal.
Name the two lines and the transversal between angles…It helps to
draw an isolated picture

to each other.
Answer: Sometimes
