What are adjacent angles?

Back

Adjacent angles are two angles that share a common side and a common vertex, but do not overlap.

Define vertical angles.

Back

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

Front

If two angles are supplementary and one measures 70 degrees, what is the measure of the other angle?

Back

The other angle measures 110 degrees (180 - 70 = 110).

How do you solve for x in the equation 3x + 4x + 19 = 180?

Back

Combine like terms to get 7x + 19 = 180, then subtract 19 from both sides to get 7x = 161, and finally divide by 7 to find x.

If angle A and angle B are complementary, and angle A measures 40 degrees, what is the measure of angle B?

Back

Angle B measures 50 degrees (90 - 40 = 50).

If two angles are adjacent and one measures 45 degrees, what is the maximum measure of the other angle if they are supplementary?

Back

The maximum measure of the other angle is 135 degrees (180 - 45 = 135).
