Linear Pair
Definition:Two adjacent angles are a linear pair if their non-common
sides are opposite rays.
The angles in a linear pair are supplementary.
Vertical Angles
Definition: A pair of angles whose sides form opposite rays.
Vertical angles are congruent.

Example: If m4 = 67º, find the measures of all other angles.
Step 1: Mark the figure with given info.
Step 2: Write an equation.
m3  m4  180
m3  67 180

m3 180  67  113
Because 4 and 2 arevertical angles, they are equal. m4  m2  67
Because 3 and 1 are vertical angles, they are equal. m3  m1  117
Example: If m1 = 23 º and m2 = 32 º, find the
measures of all other angles.
Answers:
m4  23 (1 & 4 are vertical angles.)
m5  32 (2 & 5 are vertical angles.)
