Math Problem Statement
Which angles are adjacent angles?
Solution
To determine which angles are adjacent in the provided diagram, we can use the following criteria:
Adjacent Angles Definition: Adjacent angles are two angles that share a common side and a common vertex but do not overlap.
For the given diagram:
- Angles that are next to each other at intersections (e.g., at or ) are adjacent.
- They share a vertex and a side formed by the intersecting lines.
Examples of adjacent angles in the diagram:
