Two angles forming a linear pair are supplementary angles that share a common vertex and a side, and their non-common sides form a straight line.

Key Characteristics

  • They add up to 180 degrees.
  • They are adjacent, meaning they are next to each other.
  • They lie on the same line.

Example

If one angle measures 70 degrees, the other angle in the linear pair will measure 110 degrees since 70 + 110 = 180.
