SUMMARY

This discussion focuses on the definitions and relationships between vertical angles and linear pairs of angles in geometry. Vertical angles are defined as the angles opposite each other when two lines intersect, while a linear pair consists of two adjacent angles that form a straight line, summing to 180 degrees. The measure of a straight line is 180 degrees, and knowing the measure of one angle in a linear pair allows for the calculation of the other angle. Specifically, if angle 2 measures 41 degrees, angle 3 can be determined as 139 degrees since it is supplementary to angle 2.

Mathematics news on Phys.org
look up the definitions for (1) a pair of vertical angles and (2) a linear pair of angles
 
Much the same but angle 2 and the angle with measure 41 degrees are "supplementary angles", together they make a straight line. What is the degree measure of a straight line? And while "vertical angles" is the easiest way to get the measure of angle 3, note that it and angle 2 also form a straight line. What does that tell you about getting the measure of angle 3 from the now known measure of angle 2?
