Fun stuff.
Ever heard of the Vertical angle theorem?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yeah, but not sure exactly how to use it
terenzreignz (terenzreignz):
You have?
Then what does the VAT say?

Oh btw it isn't 63 (other than that I have no clue, I'm reviewing questions I got wrong on a test)
terenzreignz (terenzreignz):
I don't know. How did you get 63?
terenzreignz (terenzreignz):
Anyway, forget everything else, and just tell me what you know about the VAT.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I guessed
terenzreignz (terenzreignz):
big no-no okay?

vertical angles are always congruent
terenzreignz (terenzreignz):
That's good. Now, can you see any angle that is vertical to the angle marked x?
terenzreignz (terenzreignz):
Mark it in your drawing.

terenzreignz (terenzreignz):
that's right. So let's mark that x as well, since it'd measure the same as the angle marked x.|dw:1394550327771:dw|

66+51= 117
terenzreignz (terenzreignz):
Okay... so far so good, I guess... now if you add x to that, what should it equal to?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
180

63?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
But 63 is wrong
terenzreignz (terenzreignz):
Well that can't be right.

Who the bloody hell said 63 is wrong?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
It has to add up to 180
terenzreignz (terenzreignz):
We both know that... apparently somebody doesn't. Strange.
