~ Angles part 2 ~
when we are given " one is twice as large as the other" we would know what the first angle is because i would use the given number and subtract it by 180 or 360 because its twice as large as the other angle. for example if the directions said "one is five degrees bigger than the other" First you have to see what shape is the angle.So lets say its a right angel. You know that a right angle measures 90 degrees.. After that you can write an equation and your equation would look like this 5+A=90.When you need to assign a variable to something you would know because a variable is a unknown so you are trying to find out what it is. Are corresponding angles the same.I say " yes" corresponding angle are in deed congruent.I say that corresponding angle are not the same as vertical angle because corresponding angles are congruent angles that are in the same location on different Parallel lines. And vertical angles are right above each other. The word congruent means that they are in the same shape and measurement..vertical angles are congruent.. Supplementary angles are not congruent angles because they have to equal 180. I think that two angles can not be corresponding and supplementary angle because corresponding angles and supplementary angle equal different measurements..I also think the same thing for vertical and corresponding can't be the same because vertical and corresponding angles are two different things...... When four angles are formed around a line and a transversal equal up to 360 degrees. This is alway the case because that is a quadrilateral and every quadrilateral equals 360.....................................
