Vertical Angles: Vertical angles are angles that are opposite of each other when two straight lines cross. In
the diagram in #5, ZGEF and ZMEH are a pair of vertical angles while ZFEM and ZHEG are also.
(a) Given the results of your calculations in #5, what can you say about the measure of vertical angles?

(b) Why do you think this occurs?

Answer:

  • vertical angles are congruent
  • both are supplementary to the same angle

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the results of #5 are ...

  ∠GEF = 120, 150, 155, 135

  ∠FEM = 60, 30, 25, 45

  ∠MEH = 120, 150, 155, 135

  ∠HEG = 60, 30, 25, 45

__

(a) We can see that vertical angles are congruent.

(b) Each of a pair of vertical angles is supplementary to the same angle.

  ∠GEF and ∠MEH are both supplementary to ∠FEM and to ∠HEG

  ∠FEM and ∠HEG are both supplementary to ∠GEF and to ∠MEH
