Question

identifying angle pairs use the figure at the right.

  1. are $\angle 5$ and $\angle 6$ a linear pair?
  2. are $\angle 5$ and $\angle 9$ a linear pair?
  3. are $\angle 5$ and $\angle 8$ a linear pair?
  4. are $\angle 5$ and $\angle 8$ vertical angles?
  5. are $\angle 5$ and $\angle 7$ vertical angles?

Explanation:

Response

To solve these problems, we need to recall the definitions of a linear pair and vertical angles:

  • Linear Pair: Two adjacent angles that form a straight line (their non - common sides are opposite rays, and their sum is \(180^{\circ}\)).
  • Vertical Angles: Two non - adjacent angles formed by two intersecting lines (they are opposite each other and have equal measures).
Problem 13: Are \(\angle5\) and \(\angle6\) a linear pair?

Step 1: Check adjacency and straight line formation

\(\angle5\) and \(\angle6\) are adjacent (they share a common side) and their non - common sides form a straight line (since they lie on a straight line in the figure). So, they satisfy the definition of a linear pair.

Answer:

Yes

Problem 14: Are \(\angle5\) and \(\angle9\) a linear pair?

Step 1: Check adjacency and straight line formation

\(\angle5\) and \(\angle9\) are adjacent (they share a common side) and their non - common sides form a straight line (as seen from the figure). So, they form a linear pair.
