Math Problem Statement
Which angle number represents an angle adjacent to ∠CGB?
Solution
To find the angle adjacent to , we first need to understand the arrangement.
- is formed by the rays and , making it an angle at vertex .
- An adjacent angle shares a common side (ray) with but does not overlap.
In the diagram:
-
corresponds to angle 2.
-
The adjacent angle to must share the ray or .
-
The angle adjacent to angle 2 is angle 1 because they share the ray and are next to each other, forming a linear pair.
Thus, angle 1 represents the angle adjacent to .

- What is the sum of adjacent angles in a straight line?
- How do you identify vertical angles in this diagram?
- Can adjacent angles be complementary or supplementary?
- How do adjacent and vertical angles differ?
Tip: Adjacent angles formed by intersecting lines are often supplementary, adding up to 180°.
