Q

Adjacent Angles

A

Two angles that share a common vertex and common side, but no common interior.

17
Q

Def. of Complementary Angles

A

Two angles that sum of to 90* are complementary.

18
Q

Def. of a Linear Pair

A

If two adjacent angles form a straight line, then they are supplementary.
Two angles are a linear pair if and only if they have a common side and their other sides are opposite rays.

19
Q

Def. of Supplementary Angles

A

Two angles that sum up to 180*.

20
Q

Def. of Vertical Angles

A

The sides of one angle are opposite to the sides of the other angle.

21
Q

<1 is congruent to <2
(vertical angles)

A

Vertical angles are congruent.

22
Q

Line a is perpendicular to line b if and only if <1 is a right angle.

A

Perpendicular lines form right angles.

23
Q

<1 is congruent to <2
(right angles)

A

All right angles are congruent.

24
Q

If line AE is perpendicular to line FC, then <AFC is congruent to <EFC.

A

If two lines are perpendicular, then they form congruent adjacent angles.

25
If
If two lines form congruent adjacent angles, the lines are perpendicular.
26
Memorize (If the exterior of...)
If the exterior of two adjacent acute angles are perpendicular, then the angles are complementary.
27
<1 is supp. to <2 <3 is supp. to <4 <2 is congruent to <3 <1 is congruent to <4
Supplements of congruent angles (or the same angle) are congruent.
28
<6 is comp. to <7 <8 is comp. to <9 <7 is congruent to <8 <6 is congruent to <9
Complements of congruent angles (or the same angle) are congruent.
