Answer:

Both are 157 degrees

Explanation:

A and B form a linear pair, meaning together they should create 180 degrees. 180 - 23 = 157. Since B and C are vertical angles, they must both be the same. A vertical angle is when two angles are on opposite sides.

Answer:

Explanation:

Linear pair: Two angles form linear pair if they are adjacent angles and their non common arms are opposite rays.

a +b = 180 {Linear pair}

23 + b = 180

b = 180 - 23

b = 157°

c = b {Vertically opposite angles are congruent}

c = 157°
