6. To Name an Angle - either use 3 letters or number it,
never use only 1 letter unless there is only one angle
with that vertex. If you use three letters, the vertex
must be the middle letter.

16. SOLUTION
EXAMPLE 1
To find vertical angles, look or angles formed
by intersecting lines.
To find linear pairs, look for adjacent angles whose noncommon
sides are opposite rays.
Identify all of the linear pairs and all of the vertical angles in
the figure at the right.
1 and 5 are vertical angles.
ANSWER

EXAMPLE 2
Let x° be the measure of one angle. The
measure of the other angle is 5x°. Then
use the fact that the angles of a linear
pair are supplementary to write an
equation.
Two angles form a linear pair. The measure of one angle is 5
times the measure of the other. Find the measure of each angle.
ALGEBRA
x + 5x = 180°
6x = 180°
x = 30°
The measures of the angles are 30°
and 5(30)° = 150°.
ANSWER

18. The measure of an angle is twice the measure of
its complement. Find the measure of each angle.
Let x° be the measure of one angle . The measure of
the other angle is 2x° then use the fact that the angles
and their complement are complementary to write an
equation
x° + 2x° = 90°
3x = 90
x = 30

19. To find the complement of an angle that
measures x°, do by subtracting its measure
from 90°, or (90 – x)°.
To find the supplement of an angle that
measures x°, do by subtracting its measure
from 180°, or (180 – x)°.

20. Find the measure of each of the following.
A. complement of F
B. supplement of G
90 – 59 = 31
(180 – x)
180 – (7x+10) = 180 – 7x – 10

(90 – x)

21. Find the measure of each of the following.
A. complement of F
B. supplement of G
90 – 41 = 49
(180 – x)
180 – (4x-5) = 180 – 4x + 5

22. An angle is 10° more than 3 times the measure of its
complement. Find the measure of the complement.
x = 3(90 – x) + 10
x = 270 – 3x + 10
x = 280 – 3x
4x = 280
x = 70
The measure of the complement, B, is (90 – 70) = 20.
Substitute x for mA and 90 – x for mB.
Distrib. Prop.
Divide both sides by 4.

23. An angle is 15° more than 5 times the measure of its
complement. Find the measure of the complement.
x = 5(90 – x) + 15
x = 450 – 5x + 15
x = 465 – 5x
6x = 465
x = 77.5
The measure of the complement, B, is (90 – 77.5) = 12.5.
Substitute x for mA and 90 – x for mB.
Distrib. Prop.
