Question
which of the following statements best describes vertical angles?
vertical angles are adjacent angles.
vertical angles are complementary angles.
vertical angles are nonadjacent angles.
vertical angles are supplementary angles.
Vertical angles are formed when two lines intersect. They are opposite each other and share a common vertex but not a common side, so they are non - adjacent. Adjacent angles share a common side, complementary angles add up to 90 degrees, and supplementary angles add up to 180 degrees, which do not define vertical angles.
