Solution

Answer Key

1) Linear pair angles :

∠1 and ∠3

∠1 and ∠2

∠4 and ∠3

∠4 and ∠2

2) 

Vertical angles :

∠1 = ∠4

∠2 = ∠3

3) Vertical angles are always equal.

4) Linear pairs are always supplementary, which means they add up to 180º.

5) x = 117°

7) k = 77°

8) a = 15°

9) w = 115°

10) d = 72°

11) Yes always, because the sum of the complementary angles will be 90 degree and it must be adjacent angles.

12)  the given statement is always true.

13) The given statement is never true.

14) Supplementary angles are the angles whose sum is 180 degree. Vertical angles will be positioned opposite. It is true always.

15) Its complement will not be greater than its supplement. Then the given statement will become never true.

16) he given statement is always true.

17) 180 - x > x for any value of x. Then the given statement is always true.

18) The given statement will never become true, because choosing and obtuse angle x which is more than 90 degree. The sum of angle and its complement will become 90 degree always. 

19) x = 6

20) the required angles are 63 and 27.

21) the required angles are 36 and 144.
