Question

1. what is line p in the picture called, and what are angles 1 and 2? p is a transversal line; 1 and 2 are corresponding angles. p is a transversal line; 1 and 2 are alternate interior angles. p is a skew line; 1 and 2 are vertical angles. p is a skew line; 1 and 2 are alternate exterior angles.

Explanation:

A transversal line intersects two or more lines. In the picture, line p intersects lines q and r, so p is a transversal. Alternate interior angles are non - adjacent angles between two parallel lines and on opposite sides of the transversal. Angles 1 and 2 are between lines q and r and on opposite sides of line p.

Answer:

P is a transversal line; 1 and 2 are alternate interior angles.
