Math Problem Statement

Which angles are adjacent angles?

Solution

To determine which angles are adjacent in the given diagram, we need to identify angles that share a common side and a common vertex, without overlapping.

  • DCF\angle DCF shares the vertex CC with other angles.
  • From the diagram, DCF\angle DCF and GFC\angle GFC are adjacent because they both share the vertex CC and the side CFCF (the line between points CC and FF), and they do not overlap.

Thus, the correct answer is DCF\angle DCF and GFC\angle GFC.

Tip: Adjacent angles always share a common vertex and one common side, but they do not overlap.
