Question

Name two linear pairs

A. Possible answers:
B. Possible answers: PRQ and QRS, STR and UTR
C. Possible answers: PRQ and QRT, STR and UTQ
D. Possible answers: _PQR and QRT, STR and 2QTR

Answer 1

The linear pairs are PRQ and QRS, and PRQ and QRT.

Step-by-step explanation:

A linear pair is formed when two adjacent angles are supplementary, meaning the sum of their measures is 180 degrees. In terms of the given options, option A and option C both represent linear pairs.

• Option A: PRQ and QRS - the sum of the measures of angle PRQ and angle QRS is 180 degrees.
• Option C: PRQ and QRT - the sum of the measures of angle PRQ and angle QRT is 180 degrees.

Therefore, the correct answer is option A: PRQ and QRS and option C: PRQ and QRT.
