There are two 30 degree angles. One is pointing southwest, one is pointing northeast.What are these pair of angles?
A. adjacent
B. complementary
C. supplementary
d. non of these
I don't know if it is A or D, please help! And, I don't think it's a complementary because it has to add up to 90 degrees. Doesn't it?
what do you mean by an angle "points southwest"?
If they share a common side (extended), then they are vertical angles.
To determine the correct answer, you need to understand the definitions of the different types of angles.
1. Adjacent angles: These are angles that have a common vertex and a common side but do not overlap. In this case, the two angles share a common vertex (the point where the angles intersect), but they do not have a common side. Therefore, they are not adjacent angles.
2. Complementary angles: Complementary angles are two angles whose sum is equal to 90 degrees. Since the sum of the given angles (30 degrees + 30 degrees) is 60 degrees, they are not complementary angles.
3. Supplementary angles: Supplementary angles are two angles whose sum is equal to 180 degrees. As the sum of the given angles is less than 180 degrees, they are not supplementary angles.
Based on the definitions provided, the correct answer is D. None of these.
