If two angles form a linear pair, then the sum of the degree measures of the angles is 180°. Then, 2x = measure of the other angle. The measures of the angles are 60° and 120°. A "linear pair" means that adjacent angles (those that are next to each other) form a line.

Answer:
60° and 120°
Step-by-step explanation:
Let one angle of the linear pair be 'x'.
Then , according to the question, the other angle will be 2x.
We know that the sum of angles of the linear pair is equal to 180°.
⇒ x + 2x = 180°
⇒ 3x = 180°
⇒ x = 180 / 3
⇒ x = 60°
2x = 2 * 60° = 120°
∴ The angles of the linear pair are 60° and 120°.
