This diagram of airport runway intersections shows two parallel runways. A taxiway crosses both runways How are <6 and <4 related? (1 point)
A Corresponding Angles
B None of these
C Same Side Interior Angles
D Alternate Interior Angles
Sorry, without a diagram or additional information, it is not possible to determine the relationship between angles <6 and <4.
The correct answer is D) Alternate Interior Angles.
To determine how angles <6 and <4 are related in the given diagram of airport runway intersections, we need to understand the different types of angle relationships.
1. Corresponding Angles: Corresponding angles are pairs of angles that lie in the same relative position at different intersections when a straight line (in this case, the taxiway) crosses two or more parallel lines (the runways). Since the given diagram does not have parallel lines intersected by a transversal, we can eliminate option A.
2. Same Side Interior Angles: Same side interior angles are pairs of angles that are on the same side of the transversal (the taxiway) and are inside the two parallel lines (the runways). They are also known as consecutive interior angles. In the given diagram, angles <6 and <4 are both inside the parallel runways but on the same side of the taxiway. Hence, option C, same side interior angles, is the correct answer.
3. Alternate Interior Angles: Alternate interior angles are pairs of angles that are on opposite sides of the transversal and are inside the two parallel lines. In the given diagram, angles <6 and <4 are not on opposite sides of the transversal but rather on the same side, so we can eliminate option D.
Therefore, the correct answer is option C: Same Side Interior Angles.
