Do the measures of an exterior angle and the adjacent interior angle sum to 180 because they form a linear pair?

Yes. Combined, they would form a straight line, or 180 degrees.


If adjacent equal sized angles are needed to form a straight angle how big is each angle?

Each angle is 180/5 = 36 degrees


What is the difference between two adjacent angles and two angles that form a linear pair?

A linear pair would be two angles that form a straight angle of 180 degrees.


What are two angles form a linear pair then they are adjacent and?

If the question refers to the total angle on a straight line then the angles are adjacent and supplementary - the angles total 180° .


The measures of an exterior angle and the adjacent interior angle add up to 360 because they form a linear pair?

No. 360 degrees is a full circle. These two angles, when added together would form a straight line, or 180 degrees.

If five adjacent equal-sized angles are needed to form a straight line how big is each angle?

Each angle is 180/5 = 36 degrees


What are 2 angles that together form a straight angle?

By a straight angle I assume you mean an 180° angle, so two angles that form a 180° angle would be called supplementary angles.


What is the difference between adjacent and supplementary angles?

Supplementary angles are two angles whose measures add to 180 degrees. Adjacent angles are two angles that happen to lie next to each other, so that they combine to form a larger angle whose measure is the sum of the measures of the adjacent angles. Angles may be both adjacent and supplementary, in which case they will form a straight angle.


Can actue angle be adjacent to an obtuse angle?

Yes, as for example 78 degrees and 102 degrees would form a supplementary angle of 180 degrees.


Why is a straight angle not considered an angle in geometry?

A straight angle is an angle.


How do you work out the exterior angle of a triangle?

Interior and adjacent exterior angles form a straight line so exterior angle = 180 - interior angle. If you are satisfied with this reply please consider awarding a Recommended Point to the responder.
