Question
- a fence on a hill uses vertical posts l and m to hold parallel rails n and p. ∠4 and ∠14 are alternate exterior angles. what is the transversal?
n
l
p
m
Step1: Recall the definition of a transversal
A transversal is a line that intersects two or more other lines.
Step2: Analyze the given angles and lines
\(\angle4\) and \(\angle14\) are alternate - exterior angles. The parallel rails are \(N\) and \(P\). The vertical posts are \(L\) and \(M\).
For \(\angle4\) and \(\angle14\), the line \(M\) intersects the parallel lines \(N\) and \(P\).
