Answer 1

Hey user

Here is your answer :-

8 pairs of corresponding angles are formed when two parallel lines are cut by a transversal .


This statement is " false ".

Now look at the attached figure

The pairs of corresponding angles are as follows

( 1 ) 1 & 5

( 2 ) 3 & 7

( 3 ) 2 & 6

( 4 ) 4 & 8

So only " 4 " pairs of corresponding angles are formed by two parallel lines and their transversal.

Thank you.
