Why does the sum of adjacent angles equals to 180 degrees?

Because that is what a straight line (or straight angle) is.


What are angles that are formed when two lines intersect?

When two unique lines intersect, two pairs of equal angles will be formed. All four angles could be 90 degrees (right angles) if the lines are perpendicular. If the lines are oblique, the pairs of angles can vary (almost) infinitely within a given range (1 degree-179 degrees).The intersection of two lines results in two pairs of equal angles such that the sum of angles equals 360. Another way to state this is that two adjacent angles will always sum to 180 degrees. That said, the best we can do is to express one angle in terms of the other. Call a pair of adjacent angles a and b. In the case of two adjacent angles, a = 180 - b, or b = 180 - a.


Are two straight angles supplementary?

No. Supplementary angles are angles that add up to 180˚. One straight angle already equals 180˚. Two straight angles add up to 360˚.


What is the graph of 6x-6y equals -48 and -10x plus 4y equals 92?

Two straight lines that intersect.


In a parallelogram with angles LMNO where L equals 32 degrees what does the adjacent angle O equal?

For angle L, the adjacent angle o, and its opposite angle M, are both 158 degrees. (it's a rhomboid) In a parallelogram, adjacent angles total 180 degrees (they are supplementary), since the opposite angles must be the same and there are two of each.


ABCD is a quadrilateral.does a plus b plus c plus d equals 180 degrees?

No, it equals 360. All interior angles for any quadrilateral are always 360. Usually adjacent angles add up to 180 degrees.


Are all complementary angles adjacent?

No, because a complamentary angle just equals 90 degrees. An adjacent angle has a vertex and a common ray the same. If you have two angles that are not touching they cannot be adjacent because they dont have a same ray, but they may have a same vertex. If the two angles add up to 90 degrees they are complimentary and dont have to have anything the same. Hope this helps! If it is confusing look up what an adjacent angle is, then look up what a complamentary angle is! :)


Two adjacent angles with a sum of 90?

Yes, it is possible. For example, line DF equals 90 degrees. Line E bisects Line DF. DE is next to EF, so therefore, they are adjacent.


What is radius equals 12 inches?

Every circle has a point called the centre. A straight line drawn through the centre and extending both ways to intersect with the circle at opposite points is called the diameter. A straight line drawn from the centre to intersect with one point of the circle is called the radius. In this case, the length of that straight line is 12 inches.


What is the simultaneous equation for 2x plus 5y equals 20?

Another straight line equation is needed such that both simultaneous equations will intersect at one point.


What are common notions in euclid geometry?

1. Given two points there is one straight line that joins them. 2. A straight line segment can be prolonged indefinitely. 3. A circle can be constructed when a point for its centre and a distance for its radius are given. 4. All right angles are equal. 5. If a straight line falling on two straight lines makes the interior angles on the same side less than two right angles, the two straight lines, if produced indefinitely, meet on that side on which the angles are less than the two right angles. 6. Things equal to the same thing are equal. 7. If equals are added to equals, the wholes are equal. 8. If equals are subtracted from equals, the remainders are equal. 9. Things that coincide with one another are equal. 10. The whole is greater than a part.


Do y equals x and y equals x plus 2 intersect?

No, equations with the same slope do not intersect unless they are the same line.
