Algebra.Com's Answer #366462 by richard1234(7193)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! Assume that they do form a linear pair. Since both angles' measures are greater than 90 deg, then their sum must be greater than 180 deg. However, angles form a linear pair if and only if their sum is 180 deg, so contradiction. \n" ); document.write( " |
