■
An acute angle is an angle that measures between 0 and 90 degrees.
■
A right angle is an angle that measures exactly 90°. A right angle is symbolized by a square at the vertex.
■
An obtuse angle is an angle that measures more than 90°, but less than 180°.
■
A straight angle is an angle that measures 180°. Thus, both of its sides form a line.

SPECIAL ANGLE PAIRS
■
Adjacent angles are two angles that share a common vertex and a common side. There is no numerical
relationship between the measures of the angles.
■
A linear pair is a pair of adjacent angles whose measures add to 180°.
■
Supplementary angles are any two angles whose sum is 180°. A linear pair is a special case of supplemen-
tary angles. A linear pair is always supplementary, but supplementary angles do not have to form a linear
pair.
■
Complementary angles are two angles whose sum measures 90 degrees. Complementary angles may or
may not be adjacent.
Example
Two complementary angles have measures 2x° and 3x + 20°. What are the measures of the angles?
Since the angles are complementary, their sum is 90°. We can set up an equation to let us solve for x:
2x + 3x + 20 = 90
5x + 20 = 90
5x = 70
x = 14
Substituting x = 14 into the measures of the two angles, we get 2(14) = 28° and 3(14) + 20 = 62°. We
can check our answers by observing that 28 + 62 = 90, so the angles are indeed complementary.

Example
One angle is 40 more than 6 times its supplement. What are the measures of the angles?
Let x = one angle.
Let 6x + 40 = its supplement.
Since the angles are supplementary, their sum is 180°. We can set up an equation to let us solve for x:
x + 6x + 40 = 180
7x + 40 = 180
7x = 140
x = 20
Substituting x = 20 into the measures of the two angles, we see that one of the angles is 20° and its
supplement is 6(20) + 40 = 160°. We can check our answers by observing that 20 + 160 = 180, prov-
ing that the angles are supplementary.
Note: A good way to remember the difference between supplementary and complementary angles is that the
letter c comes before s in the alphabet; likewise “90” comes before “180” numerically.
ANGLES OF INTERSECTING LINES
Important mathematical relationships between angles are formed when lines intersect. When two lines intersect,
four smaller angles are formed.
Any two adjacent angles formed when two lines intersect form a linear pair, therefore they are supplemen-
tary. In this diagram, ∠1 and ∠2, ∠2 and ∠3, ∠3 and ∠4, and ∠4 and ∠1 are all examples of linear pairs.
Also, the angles that are opposite each other are called vertical angles. Vertical angles are angles who share
a vertex and whose sides are two pairs of opposite rays. Vertical angles are congruent. In this diagram, ∠1 and ∠3
are vertical angles, so ∠1 ≅∠3; ∠2 and ∠4 are congruent vertical angles as well.
Note: Vertical angles is a name given to a special angle pair. Try not to confuse this with right angle or per-
pendicular angles, which often have vertical components.

Example
Determine the value of y in the diagram below:
The angles marked 3y + 5 and 5y are vertical angles, so they are congruent and their measures are
equal. We can set up and solve the following equation for y:
3y + 5 = 5y
5 = 2y
2.5 = y
Replacing y with the value 2.5 gives us the 3(2.5) + 5 = 12.5 and 5(2.5) = 12.5. This proves that the
two vertical angles are congruent, with each measuring 12.5°.
PARALLEL LINES AND TRANSVERSALS
Important mathematical relationships are formed when two parallel lines are intersected by a third, non-parallel
line called a transversal.
In the diagram above, parallel lines l and m are intersected by transversal n. Supplementary angle pairs and
vertical angle pairs are formed in this diagram, too.

Other congruent angle pairs are formed:
■
Alternate interior angles are angles on the interior of the parallel lines, on alternate sides of the transver-
sal: ∠3 and ∠6; ∠4 and ∠5.
■
Corresponding angles are angles on corresponding sides of the parallel lines, on corresponding sides of
the transversal: ∠1 and ∠5; ∠2 and ∠6; ∠3 and ∠7; ∠4 and ∠8.
Example
In the diagram below, line l is parallel to line m. Determine the value of x.
The two angles labeled are corresponding angle pairs, because they are located on top of the parallel
lines and on the same side of the transversal (same relative location). This means that they are con-
gruent, and we can determine the value of x by solving the equation:
4x + 10 = 8x – 25
10 = 4x – 25
35 = 4x
8.75 = x
We can check our answer by replacing the value 8.75 in for x in the expressions 4x + 10 and 8x – 25:
4(8.75) + 10 = 8(8.75) – 25
45 = 45
Note: If the diagram showed the two angles were a vertical angle pair or alternate interior angle pair, the prob-
lem would be solved in the same way.
