6. Describing Pairs of Angles
Sign In
You will need a protractor.
Example Solution:
Adjacent angles are two angles that have a common vertex and share a side. The two angles we want to create are 45^(∘) and 97^(∘) so that together they have a measure of 45^(∘)+97^(∘)=142^(∘). Using a protractor, we can draw this angle.
Next, we will use a protractor to draw either 97^(∘) or a 45^(∘) angle in the interior of the 142^(∘) angle.
Let's clean up the diagram
We have now constructed a pair of adjacent angles that have angle measures of 45^(∘) and 97^(∘).
