When angles form a linear pair one on the angles is acute?

No.No.No.No.


How can a linear pair have one acute angle and one obtuse angle?

The two angles of a linear pair must add to 180 degrees. So if one is less than 90 degrees (acute) the other must be more than 90 degrees (obtuse).


Does one of the angles in a linear pair of angles have to be obtuse?

True , but remember there cannot be two obtuse. Must be one acute & one obtuse. * * * * * NOT always true. Both may be right angles.


What angles do a rhombus have?

A rhombus has a pair of opposite equal acute angles and a pair of opposite equal obtuse angles and the four angles add up to 360 degrees.


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.


Does a rhombus have acute and obtuse angles?

In general a rhombus has one opposite pair of congruent acute angles and one opposite pair of congruent obtuse angles. A square, however, is a rhombus with four right angles.


What kind of angles is formed by the rhombus?

One pair of equal acute angles and a pair of equal supplementary (obtuse) angles.


What picture is have one pair of acute angles one pair of obtuse angles two parallel sides?

If the 2 acute angles are equal and the 2 obtuse angles are equal then it could be a 4 sided quadrilateral in the form of a parallelogram or a rhombus


What does a trapezoid have besides 1 pair of parallel and 1 pair of nonparallels angles are acute or obtuse and parallel?

Angles are usually illustrated as two acute and two obtuse, but there can be two right, one acute and one obtuse. Angles cannot be parallel since that is a characteristic of lines, not angles!


If one angle of a linear pair is obtuse than the other is?

acute


In a linear pair of angles does one of the angles have to be obtuse?

Ordinarily, yes: one is acute (less than 90 degrees) and one is obtuse (more than 90 degrees), such that their sum is 180 degrees. The exception is if both angles are right angles (2 x 90 degrees).
