K Step 3: Two parallel lines cut by a transversal For our safety, it is important that drivers recognize a stop sign immediately. Stop signs are made with exact side and angle measurements to form a regular octagon. They are red so they are easy to see. The three lines drawn below are straight lines. Lines a and b are parallel. a b C HE G F STOP K J
