Lesson 3-2 Special Angle Pairs

This document discusses special angle pairs that are formed when two lines intersect, including perpendicular lines, supplementary angles, complementary angles, adjacent angles, vertical angles, and linear pairs. It provides examples of finding missing angle measures using properties of these special angle pairs, such as vertical angles being congruent or angles in a linear pair summing to 180 degrees.

TOPIC 3-2: SPECIAL ANGLE PAIRS (textbook 1-4)

PERPENDICULAR LINES: lines that intersect to form 4 right angles.

EXAMPLE 1 NP and QR are perpendicular lines intersecting at O.


Find the value of ‘x’.
N

(5x – 5)
Q O R

Supplementary Angles: two angles whose measures have a


sum of 180

Complementary Angles: two angles whose measures have a


sum of 90

EXAMPLE 2 If 1 and 2 are complements, with m1 = (2x + 20)


and m2 = (3x + 15), find the value of ‘x’.
ADJACENT ANGLES: angles that have a common vertex and side, but
no common interior points.

When 2 lines intersect, they form four angles that have special
relationships.
