Answer:
Angles in a linear pair form a straight line with a total degree measure of 180°
If one angle in the pair is one half of the measure of the larger angle, we can relate them as such
Smaller angle = x°
Larger angle = 2x°
given,
the sum of the angles is 180°,
so,
x + 2x = 180°,
=> 3x = 180°,
=> x = 60°
Therefore,
the smaller angle be x° = 60°,
and the larger angle be 2x° = 120°.
