I have to fill in the blanks of this chart, and I understand this math but this is very time consuming and I'm trying to get my assignments in. The picture is attached below, I would appreciate help more than anything, I have such a busy schedule.
Pretty please help ^_^
"The picture is attached below" you forgot the pic

ok, thank you
and you weren't able to get started at all? or do you have some work done already?
No, not really. I just opened this assignment and have been looking at it for awhile, it's honestly confusing me because my teachers didn't explain how to get this done @jim_thompson5910
it says "D, F, and E are colinear" what does "colinear" mean?
Points that are on the same line. @jim_thompson5910
correct, so that means we know that angle DFE is a straight angle therefore, angle DFE = 180 degrees agreed?
I see. Yes, agreed @jim_thompson1590
@jim_thompson5910 *
a linear pair is where you have 2 angles such that a) they form a straight angle (ie they are supplementary) AND b) they are adjacent
angles 1 and 2 fit that description since they are supplementary and adjacent
So I put <1 and <2 form a linear pair because they are supplementary and adjacent. Correct? And wow, thank you so much, you're helping me out a lot. @jim_thompson5910
yep that is correct
<1 is supplementary to <2 because we have a linear pair and because D,F,E are colinear. This is kinda redundant in my view and this line isn't really needed.
Okay cool, so that gets the second box filled in. And how about the third and fourth one?
why is <1 + <2 = 180 true?
Well. It looks like they're supplementary to each other and both of them add up to 180. @jim_thompson5910
m< 1 + m< 2 = 180 simply by the definition of what supplementary means
so yeah you have it correct
Great! And what about m<1 + m<1 = 180°? @jim_thompson5910
what are your thoughts on that one?
If it's m<1 twice, then it would be 180°. But how would I explain that? @jim_thompson5910
