They are angles formed when two straight lines intersect: they are on opposite sides of the point of intersection.

What are angles that do not share a vertex?

Well it could be complementary or supplementary because they don't have to share a vertex yet I think you mean something like the vertical angle. You can go research vertical angles. I'll give you a link for the vertical angles. http://www.mathsisfun.com/geometry/vertical-angles.html


What do Vertical angles must do?

Vertical angles are formed when two lines intersect, creating two pairs of opposite angles. These angles are always equal in measure; therefore, if one angle measures 50 degrees, its vertical angle will also measure 50 degrees. This property is a fundamental concept in geometry and is useful for solving various problems involving angles.


What is the meaning of the word geometry?

Geometry is the branch of mathematics that is concerned with the properties and relationships of points, lines, angles, curves, surfaces, and solids.


What is the relationship between molecular geometry and O2 bond angles?

The relationship between molecular geometry and O2 bond angles is that the molecular geometry of O2 is linear, meaning that the bond angle between the two oxygen atoms is 180 degrees.


What is the difference between vertical angles and congruent angles?

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


Which are verticals angles?

Generally vertical angles are the angles opposite each other when two lines cross. "Vertical" in this case means they share the same Vertex (corner point), not the usual meaning of up-down.


What are the importance of studying geometry?

Geometry- is a branch of Mathematics concerned with the study of the properties of lines, angles, surfaces and solids.(Greek "Geo" meaning "Earth" and "Metron/Metrein" meaning "to measure".


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.


Why are angles opposite each other when two lines cross called vertical angles?

"Vertical" in this case means they share the same Vertex (corner point), not the usual meaning of up-down.


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.


If two lengths intersect then what vertical angles must be?

When two lengths (or lines) intersect, they form two pairs of vertical angles. Vertical angles are the angles that are opposite each other at the intersection point. These angles are always congruent, meaning they have equal measures. Thus, if one angle measures (x) degrees, the opposite angle will also measure (x) degrees.
