Question

use the proof information and image below to match each statement to the correct reason. 11. statement 4: the linear pair postulate tells us that ∠5 and ∠6 and ∠6 and ∠7 are
a. complementary
b. vertical
c. supplementary

Explanation:

The Linear Pair Postulate states that if two angles form a linear pair, then they are supplementary (their sum is \(180^{\circ}\)). \(\angle5\) and \(\angle6\) form a linear pair, and \(\angle6\) and \(\angle7\) form a linear pair.

Answer:

C. supplementary
