Answer:

C. straight

Explanation:

A Linear Pair is two adjacent angles whose non-common sides form opposite rays.

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

A linear pair forms a straight angle which contains 180º, so you have 2 angles whose measures add to 180, which means they are supplementary.

In the figure given in attachment, AB and BC are two non common sides of ∠ABD and ∠DBC.

∠1 and ∠2 form a linear pair.

The line through points A, B and C is a straight line.

∠1 and ∠2 are supplementary.

Thus two non-common sides of adjacent supplementary angles form a straight angle.
