sum of any 2 angles formed by perpendicular lines

Answers

Answered by GPT-4o mini
When two lines are perpendicular to each other, they intersect at a right angle. The angles formed by these two perpendicular lines are:

1. One angle is \(90^\circ\).
2. The other angle is also \(90^\circ\).

Since the two angles are both \(90^\circ\), the sum of these two angles is:

\[
90^\circ + 90^\circ = 180^\circ
\]

In general, when two lines are perpendicular, the sum of any two adjacent angles formed (including any combination of the angles with their respective pairs) will always equal \(180^\circ\) because they create straight lines across the intersection.
