A pair of angles are two angles that share the same vertex. They add up to 180 degrees.
There are different types of pairs of angles:
Complementary angles: These angles add up to 180 degrees. For example, if one angle is 30 degrees, the other angle must be 150 degrees.
Supplementary angles: These angles add up to 180 degrees. For example, if one angle is 45 degrees, the other angle must be 35 degrees.
Adjacent angles: These angles share the same side but are not adjacent. For example, if two angles are formed by two lines intersecting at a point, they are adjacent.
Congruent angles: These angles are identical in shape and measure. For example, if two angles are formed by two lines that intersect at a point, they are congruent.
Understanding pairs of angles helps us solve various problems in geometry, such as finding the angle measures of a given figure or determining if two lines are perpendicular
