Could you draw a picture of adjacent angles? What do they look like?

OpenStudy (volleyballlover55):

is this a good answer? Adjacent angles are angles that lie on the same side of a line. Their sum is 180.

That's pretty good for the second half. Actually, adjacent angles whose outside rays form a straight line are "supplementary angles" whose sum is 180 (as you said).

OpenStudy (jtvatsim):

In general, I would probably say something like adjacent angles are any angles that share the same interior ray.
