The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem regarding the properties of angles formed when two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, we will analyze each statement one by one. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Setup**: - We have two parallel lines, let's call them Line A and Line B. - A transversal line (let's call it Line T) intersects these two parallel lines. 2. **Identifying Angle Types**: - When Line T intersects Line A and Line B, it creates several angles. We can categorize these angles: - Alternate Interior Angles: Angles that are on opposite sides of the transversal and inside the parallel lines. - Corresponding Angles: Angles that are in the same position relative to the parallel lines and the transversal. - Interior Angles on the Same Side of the Transversal: Angles that are on the same side of the transversal and inside the parallel lines. 3. **Evaluating Each Statement**: - **Statement 1**: "Pair of alternate interior angles are equal." - This is true. According to the properties of parallel lines cut by a transversal, alternate interior angles are equal. - **Statement 2**: "Pair of corresponding angles are equal." - This is also true. Corresponding angles formed by a transversal intersecting parallel lines are equal. - **Statement 3**: "Pair of interior angles on the same side of the transversal are supplementary." - This statement is true as well. The interior angles on the same side of the transversal add up to 180 degrees, making them supplementary. 4. **Conclusion**: - Since all three statements are true, we conclude that the correct answer is that all of these statements are correct. ### Final Answer: All of the statements are true.
