A pair of adjacent angles whose non-common sides are opposite rays are called a linear pair. The measure of a straight angle is 180 degrees, so a linear pair of angles must add up to 180 degrees.

a linear pair!


What is the complement theorem?

If the noncommon sides of two adjacent angles form a right angle, then the angles are complementary angles.

What is true about both a rhombus and a square?

-- Opposite sides are parallel. -- Opposite sides are equal. -- All four sides are equal. -- Adjacent sides are equal. -- Adjacent angles are supplementary. -- Opposite angles are equal. -- Diagonals are perpendicular. -- Interior angles sum to two straight angles. -- Exterior angles sum to two straight angles.


What quadrilaterals must have opposite sides that are congruent opposite angles that are congruent and adjacent angles that are congruent?

square and a rectangle


I am a quadrilateral that has 4 right angles. My opposite sides are parallel and of equal length. What figure am I?

A quadrilateral with 4 right angles and opposite sides that are parallel can be either a rectangle if the adjacent sides are of different length or a square if the adjacent sides are of the same length.


Do all squares have two parallel sides?

All squares have TWO SETS of opposite, parallel sides. A square is a parallelogram with 4 equal sides and 4 equal angles (right angles) of which adjacent sides are perpendicular. The related parallelogram, the rhombus, or "diamond" shape, also has 4 equal sides, but no right angles, where opposite angles are equal and adjacent angles are supplementary (sum to 180 degrees).


Are two adjacent angles whose exterior sides are opposite rays always complementary?

No? Wouldn't they then be supplementary? Opposite rays make a straight angle/line, and if the exterior sides made the straight angle, the adjacent angles would be supplementary. ...Right?

What are the characteristics of a rhombus are also applicable to square?

Four sides; Four angles; Sides are of equal length; Opposite sides are parallel; Diagonals bisect one another; Opposite angles are equal; Adjacent angles are supplementary. And probably many more.
