not necesarily, supplementary angles have to add up to 180degrees so they can b linear pairs if their on the same line but not always

Why do all linear angle pairs must be supplementary but all supplementary angles do not have to be linear pairs?

All supplementary angles would be linear pairs IF they were adjacent. But they could be far apart.


Are linear pairs supplementary?

Yes, they are.


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.


Do two angles have to be linear pairs to be supplementary angles?

Yes they do, love your question


Do all supplementary angles form linear pairs why?

Because "supplementary" means they sum to 180 degrees!


Is it true or false supplementary angles are always linear pairs?

True only if the two angles are adjacent (i.e. have a point in common). By definition, supplementary angles add up to 180° therefore they are linear pairs, if they are adjacent. Otherwise false. Imagine drawing an angle of 40° at the top of the page and another of 140° at the bottom. These angles are supplementary but not a linear pair.


Are linear pairs congruent?

Yes. unless they are across from each other, then that will make them supplementary.


Are supplementary angles necessarily a linear pair?

No. All linear pair angles are supplementary, but supplementary angles do not have to be a linear pair.


Do all supplementary angles from a linear pair Are all linear pair supplementary?

All supplementary angles do not form a linear pair. The opposite angles of any quadrilateral inscribed in a circle (a cyclic quadrilateral) are supplementary but they are not a linear pair. However, all linear pair are supplementary.


Can 2 supplementary angles also be a linear pair?

Are linear pair angles congruent or supplementary?

They are supplementary


Supplementary angles form a linear pair?

Not necessarily. A linear pair of angles must be supplementary but supplementary angles need not form a linear pair. For example, the opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral are supplementary but they are (by definition) not next to one another.
