About this worksheet
When two lines cross, the angles opposite each other are vertical angles and are equal. Angles next to each other on a straight line form a linear pair and add up to 180°.
Make angle relationships worksheets with intersecting lines. Students use vertical angles (equal) and linear pairs (adding to 180°) to find x.
Find x. Vertical angles are equal; angles on a straight line add up to 180°.
When two lines cross, the angles opposite each other are vertical angles and are equal. Angles next to each other on a straight line form a linear pair and add up to 180°.
Have students write the relationship ("vertical, so equal") next to each answer. Naming it is the skill the test asks for.
