How does a transversal line interact with parallel lines?

  1. It bisects them

  2. It intersects them

  3. It runs parallel to them

  4. It forms a right angle with them

The correct answer is: It intersects them

A transversal line intersecting with parallel lines forms corresponding angles, alternate interior angles, alternate exterior angles, and consecutive interior angles. It does not bisect or run parallel to them, nor does it necessarily form a right angle with them. Therefore, the correct answer is B.
