What does vertical angles mean?

Vertical Angles are a pair of nonadjacent anglesopposite each other formed when two lines cross.Vertical angles are two angles opposite of each other. Vertical angles will also always have equal angles.


What are vertivle angles?

I think you mean vertical angles. Vertical angles are formed by two intersecting lines that make what looks like an X. Vertical angles are the two angles that are across from each other, either the top and bottom 2 angles or the left and right 2 angles. Vertical angles are also always congruent!


What does the word vertical and opposite angles mean?

vertical angles are when you have an "x" made by intersecting lines and the angles in it are vertical angles. Opposite angles are when you have the x, the angles are on directly opposite sides. --->x<--- those are opposite of each other. therefore they are opposite angles. the arrows are pointing at them


What is the difference between vertical angles and congruent angles?

not all congruent angles are vertical angles. Vertical angles must share a vertex.


Are vertical angles congruent or supplementary angles?

Vertical angles are always, by definition, congruent. Note: If the two vertical angles are right angles then they are both congruent and supplementary.


If two angles are vertical then what are they?

If two angles are vertical then they are congruent.


What is the intersection of two angles?

Do you mean the two angles that are formed by two intersecting lines? If yes, they are called vertical angles and they are congruent.


Can vertical angles be supplementary angles-?

Vertical angles can be supplementary angles if the lines are perpendicular and then both of the vertical angles would be 90 digress.


What does vertical or opposite angle mean?

Vertically opposite angles are the angles that are opposite each other when two lines cross. Vertical means they share the same vertex.


Two angles that are vertical are adjacent?

No they are not because adjacent angles are on the same side while vertical angles are on the opposite therefore vertical angles are non adjacent.


What makes a pair if angles vertical angles?

the vertical angles are the same angles as well as horizontal angles but vertical and horizontal are most the time different except when they all are 90 degrees.


What is a counter example for the statement congruent angles are always vertical angles?

Vertical angles must necessarily be congruent, however congruent angles do not necessarily have to be vertical angles. An example of congruent angles which are not vertical angles are the 3 interior angles of an equilateral triangle. These angles do not share the same vertex yet they are congruent.
