Alternate Angles: Definition and Types In this tutorial we will learn definition and types of alternate angles. In geometry, alternate angles are a special kind of angles. Alternate interior angles are formed when a transversal intersect two parallel or non-parallel lines. If a straight line intersects two lines, in the same plane at two distinct […]
