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 is the Substitution Property in geometry?

Back

The Substitution Property states that if two quantities are equal, one can be substituted for the other in any expression.
