ANGLE PAIRS

A. Determine the measures of the angles marked with letters. (Note:

Figures are not drawn to scale.)

B. Determine whether the statement is true or false. If false, explain why.

7) 𝟐𝟎𝒐 , 𝟑𝟎𝒐 , 𝟒𝟎𝒐 are complementary angles.
8) 𝟏𝟎𝟎𝒐 , 𝟓𝟎𝒐 , 𝟑𝟎𝒐 are supplementary angles.
C. Find the value(s) of the variable(s).

➢ They are vertical angles.

➢ Vertical angles are congruent.

Set-up an equation:
2x – 11 = 105
2x = 105 + 11
2x = 116
2 2
x = 58
C. Find the value(s) of the variable(s).

➢ The angles form a linear pair.

➢ Linear pair are supplementary.

Set-up an equation:
154 + x + 6 = 180
160 + x = 180
x = 180 – 160
x = 20
C. Find the value(s) of the variable(s).

➢ Use the fact that the sum of the

measures of angles that form a linear
pair is 180°.

Set-up equations:
𝑚∠𝐴𝐸𝐷 + 𝑚∠𝐷𝐸𝐵 = 180𝑜 𝑚∠𝐴𝐸𝐶 + 𝑚∠𝐶𝐸𝐵 = 180𝑜
(3𝑥 + 5)𝑜 +(𝑥 + 15)𝑜 = 180𝑜 (𝑦 + 20)𝑜 +(4𝑦 − 15)𝑜 = 180𝑜
4𝑥 + 20 = 180 5𝑦 + 5 = 180
4𝑥 = 180 − 20 5𝑦 = 180 − 5
4𝑥 = 160 5𝑦 = 175
𝒙 = 𝟒𝟎 𝒚 = 𝟑𝟓
C. Find the value(s) of the variable(s).

➢ Use the fact that vertical angles are

congruent.

Set-up equation:
5𝑥 − 50 = 3𝑥 + 20
5𝑥 − 3𝑥 = 20 + 50 3𝑥 + 20 + 𝑦 = 180
2𝑥 = 70 3(35) + 20 + 𝑦 = 180
𝒙 = 𝟑𝟓 105 + 20 + 𝑦 = 180
125 + 𝑦 = 180
➢ Use the fact that the sum of the 𝑦 = 180 − 125
measures of angles that form a linear
pair is 180°. 𝒚 = 𝟓𝟓
