Answer:

If two angles form a linear pair, then the angles are also supplementary.

For this case, we have that by definition:

The supplementary angles are those that in pair add up to 180 degrees.

On the other hand, a linear pair is a pair of adjacent angles formed when two lines intersect each other.

By definition, the two angles of a linear pair are always supplementary, this means that their measurements add up to 180 degrees.

Answer:

The two angles of a linear pair are always supplementary
