What is the difference between a linear pair and vertical angles?

In a Linear Pair the 2 angles add up to 180 degrees while Vertical Angles are just 2 vertical angles that are congruent.


which of the following reasons can be used for statement 2 of the proof?

vertical angles theorem


Are 2 angles a linear pair?

no


What makes a pair of angles vertical angles?

Vertical angles occur when 2 angles are directly across from each other and are congruent.


Can 2 right angles form a linear pair?

yes!


Can 2 supplementary angles also be a linear pair?

totaly


Can 2 obtuse angles form a linear pair?

No, they cannot.


Are 2 linear pair 2 angles that dont touch each other?

No. A linear pair is formed by a line (hence linear) with one point on the line having a ray which does not match either part of the line. This forms a linear pair, 2 angles with the ray as a common side, so they do 'touch.'


What is the linear pair postulate?

1. Where the angles in a linear pair are supplementry, and if parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then the interior angles are congruent, and if two lines are cut by a transversal so that a pair of alternate interior angles are congruent, then the two lines are parallel. That's what makes up a linear pair postulate anyway. 2. If two adjacent angle's unshared sides form a straight angle, then they are a linear pair. 3.If two angles form a linear pair,then they are supplementary.


Are all linear pairs supplementary angles?

supplementary can sure be a linear pair. As long as their is 2 different angles and they equal 180 degrees.


What is a pair of angles with the same measurement formed by 2 intersecting lines?

The math name for this is vertical angles.


What is a counterexample for all intersecting lines form right angles?

Say angle 1 is 40 which means that if angle 3 is congruent then angle 3 is also 40 by definition of vertical angles. That would make angle 2 equal to 140 by definition of a linear pair and so angle 4 is congruent by vertical angles.
