Transversal Lines
Transversal lines are those lines that intersect two or more other lines.
For two lines, transversal lines form 8 angles and in the case of parallel lines, these 8 angles show various properties and relationships. Some of these angles are corresponding angles, alternate interior angles, alternate exterior angles, and consecutive interior angles.

Special Types of Lines
There are various special types of lines in geometry, which are:
- Tangent Lines
- Secant Lines
- Skew Lines
- Lines of Symmetry
Let’s discuss them in detail.
Types of Lines
Line is a one-dimensional geometric shape, whose both sides extend to infinity. There are different types of lines in geometry, based on shape, orientation, and intersection. Let’s learn about the different types of lines in geometry and their applications in detail.
