What is the Angle Addition Postulate?

Back

The Angle Addition Postulate states that if a point lies in the interior of an angle, the sum of the two adjacent angles formed is equal to the measure of the larger angle.

What is the Segment Addition Postulate?

Back

The Segment Addition Postulate states that if point B is between points A and C, then AB + BC = AC.

What is the measure of an angle if it is complementary to a 70° angle?

Back

The measure of the angle is 20°, since 90° - 70° = 20°.
