Card 1Linear Pair of Angles

Two angles in a linear pair have measures 3x + 20° and 2x + 40°. Find the value of x.

Answer

Step 1: Linear pair angles are supplementary, so their sum = 180°. Step 2: (3x + 20°) + (2x + 40°) = 180°. Step 3: 5x + 60° = 180°. Step 4: 5x = 120°. Step 5: x = 24°. Answer: x = 24°

Card 2Parallel Lines and Transversals

If two parallel lines are cut by a transversal and one angle measures 65°, find all the other angles.

Answer

Step 1: When parallel lines are cut by transversal, 4 angles = 65° (corresponding and alternate angles). Step 2: Remaining 4 angles = 180° - 65° = 115° (supplementary pairs). Answer: Four angles of 65

Card 3Triangle Angle Properties

In triangle ABC, angle A = 40° and angle B = 70°. Find angle C and the exterior angle at C.

Answer

Step 1: Sum of angles in triangle = 180°. Step 2: ∠C = 180° - 40° - 70° = 70°. Step 3: Exterior angle at C = 180° - ∠C = 180° - 70° = 110°. Or using exterior angle theorem: Exterior angle = ∠A + ∠B =

Card 4Complementary Angles

Two angles are complementary. One angle is 25° more than the other. Find both angles.

Answer

Step 1: Let smaller angle = x°. Step 2: Larger angle = (x + 25)°. Step 3: For complementary angles: x + (x + 25) = 90°. Step 4: 2x + 25 = 90°. Step 5: 2x = 65°. Step 6: x = 32.5°. Answer: The angles a

Card 5Vertically Opposite Angles

Find the value of x if vertically opposite angles are (2x + 15)° and (3x - 25)°.

Answer

Step 1: Vertically opposite angles are equal. Step 2: 2x + 15 = 3x - 25. Step 3: 15 + 25 = 3x - 2x. Step 4: 40 = x. Step 5: Verify: 2(40) + 15 = 95° and 3(40) - 25 = 95° ✓. Answer: x = 40°

Card 6Exterior Angle Theorem

When do you use the exterior angle theorem of a triangle?

Answer

Use when: Finding an exterior angle OR finding interior angles when exterior angle is given. Theorem: Exterior angle = Sum of two non-adjacent interior angles. Example: If exterior angle = 120° and on

Card 7Triangle Angle Properties

In triangle PQR, the angles are in ratio 2:3:4. Find all three angles.

Answer

Step 1: Let angles be 2x, 3x, and 4x. Step 2: Sum of triangle angles = 180°. Step 3: 2x + 3x + 4x = 180°. Step 4: 9x = 180°. Step 5: x = 20°. Step 6: Angles are 2(20°) = 40°, 3(20°) = 60°, 4(20°) = 80

Card 8Supplementary Angles

Two supplementary angles differ by 40°. Find both angles.

Answer

Step 1: Let angles be x° and (x + 40)°. Step 2: Supplementary angles sum to 180°. Step 3: x + (x + 40) = 180°. Step 4: 2x + 40 = 180°. Step 5: 2x = 140°. Step 6: x = 70°. Answer: The angles are 70° an
