Line AE is parallel to line FD. Line CB is the transversal. Use this applet to explore the relationships between interior angles. [b]Move point A change the orientation[/b] of the parallel lines. [b]Move point C to change the distance[/b] between the lines. Point B changes both orientation and distance between the lines.
