Question

select the transversal connecting ∠10 and ∠16. then classify the relationship between ∠10 and ∠16 as alternate interior, alternate exterior, corresponding, or consecutive interior angles.

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the transversal

Transversal is a line that intersects two or more lines. By observing the figure, line \(b\) intersects the lines on which \(\angle10\) and \(\angle16\) lie.

Step2: Classify the angle - pair relationship

Alternate - interior angles are non - adjacent angles that lie between two lines and on opposite sides of a transversal. \(\angle10\) and \(\angle16\) are non - adjacent, lie between the relevant lines and on opposite sides of line \(b\). So they are alternate interior angles.

Answer:

Transversal: line \(b\); Relationship: alternate interior
