Angle Pairs

Front

What is a linear pair of angles?

Back

A linear pair of angles consists of two adjacent angles whose non-common sides form a straight line. The sum of the angles in a linear pair is always 180 degrees.

What are corresponding angles?

Back

Corresponding angles are pairs of angles that are in the same position on different parallel lines cut by a transversal. They are equal in measure.

How do you find the value of x in angle problems?

Back

To find the value of x in angle problems, you typically set up an equation based on the relationships between the angles (e.g., linear pairs, vertical angles, etc.) and solve for x.

What is the relationship between angles 1 and 2 if they are not corresponding?

Back

If angles 1 and 2 are not corresponding, they may be alternate interior angles, alternate exterior angles, or neither, depending on their positions relative to the transversal and parallel lines.

What are vertical angles?

Back

Vertical angles are the angles opposite each other when two lines intersect. They are always equal in measure.

What is the definition of a transversal?

Back

A transversal is a line that intersects two or more lines at different points, creating various angle pairs.

How can you identify corresponding angles in a diagram?

Back

Corresponding angles can be identified by looking for angles that are in the same relative position at each intersection created by a transversal.
