Corresponding Angles Proof

In the figure below, line k is parallel to line m.
Using the translate tool, translate the marked arc along vector u.
Now, move vector u to show that angle α is equal to angle β.

This shows that when parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then the corresponding angles are equal in measure.
