Alternate Exterior Angles – Definition – Examples and Properties What are alternate exterior angles? The term alternate exterior angles is often used when two lines are intersected by a third line(transversal). Alternate exterior angles are formed when two lines are intersected by a third line. The third line is known as the transversal line. Alternate […]

Similar Polygons Two polygons are similar if they have same shape, but not the same size. Similar polygons are polygons, if their corresponding angles are congruent, and the measure of their corresponding sides are proportional. The ratio of length of their corresponding sides are all in a constant ratio, and their corresponding angles are equal. […]
