1 a restraining, arresting, or checking of the action of an organ or cell. 2  the reduction of a reflex or other activity as the result of an antagonistic stimulation.  a state created at synapses making them less excitable by other sources of stimulation.
Angles 2 and 7, as well as angles 3 and 6 are examples of alternate interior angles. Similarly, we also have alternate exterior angles that are located outside of the two intersected lines and on opposite sides of the transversal. An example of this relationship would be angles 1 and 8, as well as angles 4 and 5. The last angle relationship is consecutive interior angles. These angles are located on the same side of the transversal and inside of the two lines.
Since the sum of the interior angles of any triangle is 180Â° and there are two triangles in a quadrilateral, the sum of the angles for each quadrilateral is 360Â°. Specific Types of Quadrilaterals. Letâs start by examining the group of quadrilaterals that have two pairs of parallel sides. These quadrilaterals are called parallelograms They take a variety of shapes, but one classic example is shown below. Imagine extending the pairs of opposite sides.
