Starting with the fact that angles 1 and a are a linear pair and that angles b and 2 are also a linear pair, use a two column proof to prove that consecutive interior angles a and bare supplementary ( 5 points)

Answer:

See proof below

Step-by-step explanation:

Two angles that are linear pair sums up to 180°

If angles 1 and a are a linear pair and that angles b and 2 are also a linear pair, then;

1+a = 180....1

2+b= 180....2

Taking the sum of both equations

1+2+a+b = 360°... 3

Note that the sum of the adjacent angles will also be 180° since they also lie on the same straight line, hence;

1+2 = 180°...4.

Substitute 4 into 3

From 3;

1+2+a+b = 360°

(1+2)+(a+b) = 360°

180+(a+b) = 360

a+b = 360-180

a+b = 180

Since the sum of a and b is 180°, this shows that angles are supplementary since the sum of 2 supplementary angles is also 180°

Hence this shows that the consecutive interior angles a and bare supplementary.

Answer:

180-35=145 Degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

TBH I may not have a complete understanding; but what I do know is a straight line (or angel if you so chose) is equal to 180 degrees (NOTE: supplementary- angels are when 2 angels that are added up to 180 degrees) and on my part of the question is: "Starting with the fact that angles 1 and a are a linear pair and that angles b and 2 are also a linear pair, use a two column proof that consecutive interior angles a and b are supplementary".

Now in my whole complete course its asking a bout a ski slope and it gives me the 35 degree angle and we need to figure out the missing angle, we have the same picture as listed above.... knowing that straight lines are 180 degrees I subtracted 180-35 and I got 145 degrees now either i'm right or i'm missing som I did in a few years back but most of my information is basically backed up by some understanding I do know
