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 does it mean for angles to be adjacent?

Back

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

If angle A measures 118 degrees, what is the measure of its supplementary angle?

Back

62 degrees, because 180 - 118 = 62.

What is the measure of angle 5 if it is complementary to angle 6, which measures 45 degrees?

Back

Angle 5 measures 45 degrees, because 90 - 45 = 45.
