                Adjacent Angles

                Two angles in a plane are said to be adjacent if they have a common                        Common
                                                                                                             arm
                vertex and a common arm in between the other two arms.                                  A
                In the adjoining figure, ∠AOB and ∠BOC are two adjacent angles having                                B
                common vertex O, and common arm OB. Other two arms OA and OC are               Common
                                                                                                Vertex
                on  either side of the common arm OB.
                                                                                                          O          C
                \ ∠AOC = ∠AOB + ∠BOC
                Linear Pair of Angles

                If the sum of two adjacent angles is equal to 180°, then they are called the            D
                linear pair of angles.
                                                                                                       60°     120°
                In the adjacent figure, ∠ACD = 120° and ∠BCD = 60°, then,
                                                                                                   B        C        A
                                             ∠ACB = ∠ACD + ∠BCD = 120° + 60° = 180°

                Since, the sum of ∠ACD and ∠BCD is equal to 180°, so they form a linear pair.
                Vertically Opposite Angles

                When two lines intersect each other at a point, two sets of opposite angles
                are formed and each pair of opposite angles is called vertically opposite            A               D
                angles. When two lines intersect each other, the vertically opposite angles                  O
                so formed are equal. In the adjoining figure, two lines AC and BD intersect
                each other at point O.                                                                B             C
                ∠AOB and ∠COD form a pair of vertically opposite angles, and                    Remember
                ∠AOD and ∠BOC form the other pair of vertically opposite angles.           A linear pair is a pair of adjacent

                Since, the vertically opposite angles are equal. Therefore,              angles whose non-common sides
                                                                                         are opposite rays.
                ∠AOB = ∠COD and ∠AOD = ∠BOC
