Vertical angles are pairs of angles that are opposite each other when two lines intersect, and they are always equal in measure. A linear pair of angles consists of two adjacent angles that form a straight line, making them supplementary, meaning their measures add up to 180 degrees. The degree measure of a straight line is 180 degrees. Given that angle 2 and the angle measuring 41 degrees are supplementary, angle 2 measures 139 degrees. Consequently, angle 3, being vertical to angle 2, also measures 139 degrees.

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?
