PRETTY PLEASE HELP MEE Use the figures to write a good definition of linear pair.

Two angles are a linear pair if and only if they are vertical angles and are formed by raysTwo angles are a linear pair if and only if they share a side and a vertex and are supplementary.Two angles are a linear pair if and only if they are next to each other. Two angles are a linear pair if and only if they share a side and a vertex and are formed by rays.

a linear pair are 2 angles, when added, form a line. They're supplementary angles that add up to 180 degrees.

Answer:

B. Two angles are a linear pair if and only if they share a side and a vertex and are supplementary.

Explanation:

We are given that the figures representing linear pair.

From the figure, we see that,

Both the angles in a linear pair share the same vertex.

Both the angles in a linear pair share the same side.

Also, The sum of the angles in a linear pair is 180° i.e. they are supplementary angles.

That is, the correct definition for the linear pair is given by,

B. Two angles are a linear pair if and only if they share a side and a vertex and are supplementary.
