Question

Draw a picture and check. Renu drew the picture like this. Has she drawn correctly? Do these adjacent angles form a linear pair?

Answer 1

Sum of the adjacent angles = 140° + 40° = 180°

The given pair of angles are adjacent and their sum is 180°.

We know that a pair of adjacent angles whose sum is a straight angle180° is called a linear pair.

Hence, the given adjacent angles form a linear pair as their sum is 180°. So, Renu has drawn the picture correctly.
