Question

use the figure. are ∠2 and ∠5 vertical angles? explain. no; the angles are not adjacent. yes; the angles form a linear pair. yes; the sides of the angles form two pairs of

Explanation:

Vertical angles are formed when two lines intersect and are opposite each other. ∠2 and ∠5 are not vertical angles because vertical - angle pairs are formed by the intersection of two lines and are non - adjacent. The fact that they are not adjacent is not the correct reason for them not being vertical angles. A linear pair consists of adjacent angles that form a straight line. ∠2 and ∠5 are not a linear pair. Vertical angles have sides that form two pairs of opposite rays. ∠2 and ∠5 do not have sides that form two pairs of opposite rays.

Answer:

no; The sides of the angles do not form two pairs of opposite rays.
