Converse: If two angles are supplementary then they form a linear pair. True or False? False
Practice makes perfect
Let's start by writing the hypothesis and the conclusion.
If&two angles form a linear pair
then&they are supplementary.
To write the converse of a conditional statement, we exchange the hypothesis and the conclusion.
If&two angles are supplementary
then&they form a linear pair.
This is not a true statement. Supplementary angles are angles that have measures that add up to 180^(∘). However, angles do not have to form a linear pair to have their measure add up to 180^(∘).
