Question
identifying angle pairs use the figure at the right.
- are $\angle 5$ and $\angle 6$ a linear pair?
- are $\angle 5$ and $\angle 9$ a linear pair?
- are $\angle 5$ and $\angle 8$ a linear pair?
- are $\angle 5$ and $\angle 8$ vertical angles?
- are $\angle 5$ and $\angle 7$ vertical angles?
Response
To solve these problems, we need to recall the definitions of a linear pair and vertical angles:
- Linear Pair: Two adjacent angles that form a straight line (their non - common sides are opposite rays, and their sum is \(180^{\circ}\)).
- Vertical Angles: Two non - adjacent angles formed by two intersecting lines (they are opposite each other and have equal measures).
Problem 13: Are \(\angle5\) and \(\angle6\) a linear pair?
Step 1: Check adjacency and straight line formation
\(\angle5\) and \(\angle6\) are adjacent (they share a common side) and their non - common sides form a straight line (since they lie on a straight line in the figure). So, they satisfy the definition of a linear pair.

Problem 14: Are \(\angle5\) and \(\angle9\) a linear pair?
Step 1: Check adjacency and straight line formation
\(\angle5\) and \(\angle9\) are adjacent (they share a common side) and their non - common sides form a straight line (as seen from the figure). So, they form a linear pair.
