Two angles are supplementary the larger angle measures to be 120 degrees?

When 2 or more angles add up to 180 degrees they are said to be supplementary. Supplementary angles only occur on straight lines, so if one angle is said to be 120 the other angle has to be 60 degrees in order to form a straight line and also to add the angles to 180 degrees


What dos perpendicular mean?

Two lines are said to be perpendicular when they are at right angles. That means that the angle between them is 90 degrees.There are other meanings of perpendicular; for example, a line is said to be perpendicular to a plane when it is perpendicular to EVERY line of the plane that goes through the intersection.

A line with equal angles from a surface is referred to as being normal


When lines intersect in one place they are what?

Intersecting. Usually, if there are three or more lines, they are said to be concurrent.Intersecting. Usually, if there are three or more lines, they are said to be concurrent.Intersecting.

What are corresponding angles?

For any pair of parallel lines 1 and 2, that are both intersected by a third line, such as line 3 in the diagram below, angle A and angle C are called corresponding angles. Corresponding angles have the same degree measurement. Angle B and angle D are also corresponding angles. On a piece of paper, draw a horizontal line. Now, draw a diagonal line that bisects this line. You have now created four angles. Over the line, label the angles A and B, from left to right. Under the line, label the angles C and D, this time right to left. Angles A and C are corresponding angles, as they have the same degree measurement, and angles B and D are corresponding angles for the same reason. To answer your next question, angles A and B and angles C and D are complimentary angles as their degree measurements add up to 180. The same can be said for angles A and D and angles B and C. any pair of angles that have the same relative position at each intersection where a straight line crosses two others

What are angles that are formed when two lines intersect?

When two unique lines intersect, two pairs of equal angles will be formed. All four angles could be 90 degrees (right angles) if the lines are perpendicular. If the lines are oblique, the pairs of angles can vary (almost) infinitely within a given range (1 degree-179 degrees).The intersection of two lines results in two pairs of equal angles such that the sum of angles equals 360. Another way to state this is that two adjacent angles will always sum to 180 degrees. That said, the best we can do is to express one angle in terms of the other. Call a pair of adjacent angles a and b. In the case of two adjacent angles, a = 180 - b, or b = 180 - a.


Is angle in a parallelogram vertical to each other?

The term parallelogram refers to a four sided geometrical figure (in other words, a quadrilateral) in which there are two sets of parallel sides. The angles can vary; they can be right angles, or they can be acute or obtuse angles, as long as there are two sets of parallel sides. Angles are not said to be vertical to each other. Angles can be perpendicular to each other, but not vertical or horizontal. If angles are perpendicular, then they are right angles, in other words, 90o angles. Lines can be vertical, but angles can't.
