The modern astrophysical techniques allowed the observation of the exoplanets transits. The high accuracy photometric and spectroscopic observations contributed to this. The observational data consist of the photometric light-curve generated by the planet transit and the radial velocity curve of the central star. The interpretation of these curves makes possible the estimation of some properties as: mass ratio, separation, orbit inclination, radius of the central star. We present different interpretation methods depending on the available observational data.
