Answer:
All adjacent angles do not form a linear pair.
Step-by-step explanation:
From the above figure we can observe; OX and OY are two opposite rays and ∠XOZ and ∠YOZ are the adjacent angles. Therefore, ∠XOZ and ∠YOZ form a linear pair.
If you measure ∠XOZ and ∠YOZ with the help of the protractor, you will find the sum of their measures equal to 180°.
Thus, the sum of the angles in a linear pair is 180°.
