Step-by-step solution

Given that line a is parallel to line b, let us remind ourselves of the definition of corresponding angles between parallel lines:

Corresponding angles are angles located on the same side of the line that intersects the two parallels and are also situated at the same level with respect to the parallel line to which they are adjacent.

Corresponding angles are equal in size.

According to this definition α=β \alpha=\beta and as such they are the corresponding angles.
