Question

Two angles that form a linear pair have a ratio of 2 : 3. What is the measure of both angles?

Answer 1

Linear pair? Does that mean that both angles add up to 180?

Answer 2

I think so.

Answer 3

2x+3x=180
Solve for x

Answer 4

x = 36

Answer 5

2x+3x=180
x(2+3)=180
x(5) = 180
x =180/5= 36


First angle is 36*2
Second angle is 36*3

Answer 6

72 & 108 yes?

Answer 7

Yea that's what I got. If your definition of linear pair means that both angles add up to 180.

Answer 8

Thank you!
