2.6 Flashcards
Vertical Angles
Two angles are vertical if their sides form two pairs of opposite rays.
Linear Pair
Two adjacent angles are a linear pair if their noncommon sides form opposite rays.
Complementary Angles
Two angles are complementary if the sum of their measures is 90 degrees. Each angle is the complement of the other.
Linear Pair Postulate
If two angles for a linear pair, then they are supplementary i.e. the sum of their measures is 180 degrees.
Thm. 2.1 Congruent Supplements Theorem
If two angles are supplementary to the same angle or to congruent angles, then they are congruent.
Thm. 2.2 Congruent Complements Theorem
If two angles are complementary to the same angle or to congruent angles, then they are congruent.
Thm. 2.3 Vertical Angles Theorem
If two angles are vertical angles, then they are congruent.
Supplementary Angles
Two angles are supplementary if the sum of their measures s 180 degrees. Each angle is the supplement of the other.
