Question

If WZX and WZV are a linear pair, which of the following statements is true?

A) WZX and WZV are supplementary angles.
B) WZX and WZV are complementary angles.
C) WZX and WZV form a vertical pair.
D) WZX and WZV are parallel lines.

Answer 1

If WZX and WZV are a linear pair, they are supplementary angles.

Step-by-step explanation:

If WZX and WZV are a linear pair, then they are adjacent angles that form a straight line. A linear pair of angles is always supplementary, which means that the sum of their measures is equal to 180 degrees. So, the correct statement is A) WZX and WZV are supplementary angles.
