What are two angles with a sum of 180 degrees called?

They are called supplementary angles. See the related link below for more information.They are complementary angles that add up to 90 degrees


What is degree in trigonometry?

Angles are measured either in degrees or in radians.


Can you find the reference angle of a quadrantal angle?

Yes. Quadrantal angles have reference angles of either 0 degrees (e.g. 0 degrees and 180 degrees) or 90 degrees (e.g. 90 degrees and 270 degrees).


If two angles of a triangle are acute then the third angle must be?

It can be either acute or obtuse. An acute angle is less than 90 degrees and all 3 angles add to 180 degrees. For example, If two angles are 60 degrees (acute) then the 3rd is 60 degrees (acute). If two angles are 30 degrees (acute) the 3rd is 120 degrees (obtuse).


What is the measure of each angle of an isosceles triangle if the measure of the third angle is 7 times the measure of either of the two base angles?

The angles are 140 degrees, 20 degrees and 20 degrees that add up to 180 degrees


If the measure of one angle of an isosceles triangle is 92 degrees what is the measure of either of the remaining angles?

44 degrees


Sketch the two adjacent angles 90 degrees and 90 degrees This is an example of angles?

Adjacent angles are two angles that are next to each other and share one side (ray) in common. They do not have to add up to 180 degrees, but they can. If the two of them add up to 180 degrees, they are called a linear pair, since their non-common sides will be opposite rays that make a straight line. Two 90-degree angles that are adjacent are a linear pair. They are supplementary (meaning they add up to 180 degrees) and a sketch of them will look like a T, either upside-down (typical), sideways, or right-side up, depending on how you want to draw them.


What are angles that have the same position on two different parallel lines cut by a transversal?

It is either 90 degrees or 180 degrees.


The sum of witch two types of angles gives a straight angle?

Either two right angles, or one obtuse and one acute.


What is the angle characteristics of a parallelogram?

-- all four interior angles add up to 360 degrees-- any pair of adjacent angles adds up to 180 degrees-- the members of either pair of non-adjacent angles are equal


Is at least on angle on any quadralladeral 90?

Yes. The sum of the internal angles of every quadrilateral is 360 degrees, so either all angles are 90 degrees or at least one must be.


Why cant a quadrilateral have exactly 3 right angles?

A quadrilateral can only have either 2 right angles or four. As you may (or may not) know, the angles in a quadrilateral must add up to 360 degrees. If you have 3 right angles that adds up to 270 degrees, so the last side must also be 90 degrees.
