To prove:the opposite angles formed by two intersecting lines are of equal measures
Answers
Answer:
A pair of vertically opposite angles are always equal to each other. Also, a vertical angle and its adjacent angle are supplementary angles, i.e., they add up to 180 degrees. For example, if two lines intersect and make an angle, say X=45 °, then its opposite angle is also equal to 45 °.

Answer --
We know other two angles are called a pair of vertically opposite angles if their arms form two pairs of opposite rays .
So To
Prove - Opposite angles formed by two intersecting lines are equal .
I. e. Angle AOC = Angle COD
( See The Attachement also )
Proof -
Here ray OC stands on line AB .
∠AOC + ∠BOD = 180° ( Linear Pair )-- ( i)
Again ray OB stands on line CD
So ∠BOD + ∠BOC =180 ( Linear Pair )--- (ii )
So from equation i and equation ii
∠AOC + ∠BOD = ∠BOD + ∠BOC
On subtracting ∠BOC from both sides , we get
∠AOC= ∠BOD
This Proves that the opposite angles formed by two intersecting lines are always equal.
Similarly we can also prove ∠AOD and ∠BOC by this above theorem.
