What are vertical angles?
Angles opposite each other when two lines intersect.
Angles that share a common vertex and side but do not overlap.
Angles that form a linear pair.
Angles that add up to 90 degrees.
Vertical angles are the angles opposite each other when two lines intersect. They are always congruent, which is why the first option is correct.
If two angles form a linear pair, what sum do they have?
180°
90°
360°
0°
A linear pair of angles share a common side and form a straight line, which measures 180°. Therefore, their sum is 180°.
What does it mean for two angles to be complementary?
They add up to 90°.
They are adjacent angles.
They form a linear pair.
They have equal measures.
Complementary angles are defined as two angles whose measures add up to 90°. This makes the first answer correct.
What does it mean for two angles to be supplementary?
They add up to 180°.
They add up to 90°.
They are complementary to each other.
They are vertical angles.
Supplementary angles are two angles whose measures sum to 180°. The correct definition is provided in the first option.
If two angles are complementary and one of them measures 30°, what is the measure of the other angle?
60°
120°
150°
30°
Complementary angles sum to 90°, so if one angle is 30°, subtracting from 90° gives 60° for the other angle. This makes the first option correct.
Two intersecting lines form vertical angles. If one angle measures 60°, what is the measure of its vertical angle?
60°
120°
90°
30°
Vertical angles are congruent, meaning they have the same measure. Since one angle is 60°, its vertical counterpart is also 60°.
Two angles form a linear pair. If one angle measures 125°, what is the measure of the other angle?
55°
65°
75°
45°
A linear pair of angles sums to 180°. Subtracting 125° from 180° gives 55° for the other angle, making the first option correct.
When two angles are complementary and one measures 48°, what is the measure of the other angle?
42°
48°
52°
90°
Complementary angles add up to 90°. Thus, subtracting 48° from 90° results in 42°, which makes the first answer correct.
In a diagram with two parallel lines cut by a transversal, if one alternate interior angle measures 85°, what is the measure of its alternate interior counterpart?
85°
95°
75°
90°
Alternate interior angles are congruent when two parallel lines are cut by a transversal. Therefore, if one angle is 85°, the other must also be 85°.
When a transversal intersects two parallel lines, corresponding angles are congruent. If one corresponding angle is 110°, what is the measure of the matching corresponding angle?
110°
70°
130°
90°
Corresponding angles have equal measures when a transversal cuts parallel lines. Hence, the matching corresponding angle is also 110°.
Two angles are supplementary. If one angle is represented by (4x + 10)° and the other by (3x + 20)°, what equation represents their relationship?
(4x + 10) + (3x + 20) = 180
(4x + 10) + (3x + 20) = 90
(4x + 10) - (3x + 20) = 180
(4x + 10) x (3x + 20) = 180
Since supplementary angles add up to 180°, the sum of (4x + 10)° and (3x + 20)° must equal 180°. This makes the first equation the correct representation.
Two angles are complementary. If one angle is (5y - 15)° and the other is (y + 35)°, what equation represents their complementary relationship?
(5y - 15) + (y + 35) = 90
(5y - 15) + (y + 35) = 180
(5y - 15) + (y + 35) = 45
(5y - 15) x (y + 35) = 90
Complementary angles sum to 90°, so the equation (5y - 15) + (y + 35) = 90 correctly represents their relationship.
Which of the following statements is always true about vertical angles formed by two intersecting lines?
Vertical angles are congruent.
Vertical angles are supplementary.
Vertical angles are complementary.
Vertical angles form a linear pair.
Vertical angles are always equal in measure due to the symmetry created by intersecting lines. This congruency is why the first statement is correct.
If an angle's supplement is three times the angle itself, what is the measure of the angle?
45°
30°
60°
90°
Let the angle be x. Since its supplement is 180° - x and is three times x, the equation 180 - x = 3x leads to 4x = 180, so x = 45°. This validates the correct answer.
What is the term for two angles that share a common vertex and a common side?
Adjacent angles
Vertical angles
Complementary angles
Supplementary angles
Angles that share a common vertex and a common side are known as adjacent angles. This definition confirms that the first option is correct.
Two intersecting lines create vertical angles expressed as (2x + 10)° and (3x - 5)°. What is the measure of each vertical angle?
40°
35°
45°
50°
Since vertical angles are congruent, we set (2x + 10) equal to (3x - 5) and solve for x. This gives x = 15, and substituting back, each angle measures 40°.
A transversal cuts two parallel lines, forming alternate interior angles represented by (x + 20)° and (2x - 10)°. What is the measure of each alternate interior angle?
50°
40°
60°
30°
Alternate interior angles are congruent when cut by a transversal across parallel lines. Setting (x + 20) equal to (2x - 10) yields x = 30, and each angle then measures 50°.
Two consecutive interior angles on the same side of a transversal are represented by (3x + 15)° and (2x + 25)°. What are the measures of these two angles?
99° and 81°
90° and 90°
100° and 80°
85° and 95°
Consecutive interior angles are supplementary, so their sum is 180°. Setting up the equation (3x + 15) + (2x + 25) = 180 leads to x = 28, resulting in angle measures of 99° and 81°.
Two adjacent angles form a linear pair and are expressed as (2x + 10)° and (3x - 20)°. What is the measure of the angle opposite to (2x + 10)°?
86°
94°
76°
90°
The two angles form a linear pair, so their sum is 180°. Solving (2x + 10) + (3x - 20) = 180 gives x = 38, which makes (2x + 10) equal to 86°. The vertical angle to (2x + 10)° is also 86°, confirming the correct answer.
A transversal intersects two parallel lines, creating an exterior angle represented by (4x + 5)° and its adjacent interior angle represented by (x + 35)°. What is the measure of the exterior angle?
117°
125°
110°
120°
The exterior angle and its adjacent interior angle are supplementary, so (4x + 5) + (x + 35) = 180. Solving this yields x = 28, and substituting back gives the exterior angle as 117°.

  2. Supplementary Angles - When two angles sum to 180°, they're called supplementary and form a straight line together. For instance, a 110° angle and its 70° friend stretch out into one smooth line - you can almost hear them whisper "S" for "Straight"! Use these pals when plotting roads or rooftops in geometry sketches. Learn more
