Question

85°,Measure of one angle of linear pair is given. Find the measure of another angle.

Answer 1

For Linear pair

The Sum of two angles = 180°

so X + Y = 180°

Given Angle = X = 85°

so

85° + Y = 180°

Y = 180° - 85°

Y = 95°

So. other angle of the Linear pair is 95°

Answer 2

Solution :

*****************************************

A pair of adjacent angles are said

to be a linear pair of angles if their

sum is 180° .

******************************************
Here ,

one angle ( x ) = 85°

Let Second angle = y

x + y = 180°

=> y = 180° - x

=> y = 180° - 85°

=> y = 95°

Therefore ,

Required measure of another angle

is 95°
