What are vertical angles?

Back

Vertical angles are the angles opposite each other when two lines intersect. They are always congruent (equal in measure).

What is a linear pair of angles?

Back

A linear pair of angles is a pair of adjacent angles formed when two lines intersect. The angles in a linear pair are supplementary.
