Marcus states that angle ORP and angle LRP are a linear pair. Which best describes his statement?
He is incorrect. Ray RO and ray RL are not opposite rays.
Imagine two lines intersect. How can the properties of linear pairs and vertical angles help to determine the angle measures created by the intersecting lines? Explain.
If you know the measure of one angle in a linear pair, you can find the measure of the other because the sum of the measure of the two angles is 180 degrees. If you know the measure of one angle in a pair of vertical angles, you can find the measure of the other because they are congruent.
Given: mEDF = 120°; mADB = (3x)°; mBDC = (2x)° Prove: x = 24 What is the missing reason in step 3?
NOT definition of congruency
Given: mORP = 80° mORN = (3x + 10)° Prove: x = 30 Which statement could be used in step 2 when proving x = 30?
