An auxiliary line is a line that is added to a diagram in geometry to help in the solving of a problem or proving a theorem. It is not originally part of the figure and is typically drawn to provide additional information or to create relationships that were not previously apparent. Auxiliary lines can facilitate the construction of new angles, help to demonstrate congruence or similarity between triangles, and can make it easier to visualize geometric relationships.
