Which two angles are supplementary

Question

Which to angles are supplementary

Answer 1

Ruben, the key to this question is to understand what makes angles supplementary (in other words, what does supplementary mean in math).

 

For angles, supplementary angles are those that when placed side by side form a line. This means that the measurement from the edge of one angle to the edge of the other angle must be 180º since that is the angle measurement of a line.

 

For example, let's say there is a 60º angle and a 120º angle. They would be supplementary because the sum of the angles is 180º.

Answer 2

Ruben,

 

I have to assume there is a diagram associated with this question.

 

Without it, it's difficult to give the specific answer to your question but remember

 

Supplementary angles are angles whose measures add to 180°

 

Given a line and a transversal, the angles on either side of the transversal will add to 180°

                           A    /   B

In the diagram above <A and <B are supplementary

Answer 3

Since we don't have a list of angles, the answer we can give you is "the two angles when added up together make 180."

Answer 4

Two angles are supplementary if the sum of the measures is 180°.
