MATH / GEOMETRY- GRADE 7


4TH PERIODICAL TEST

In geometry, pairs of angles are related to each other in several ways. Some examples are
complementary angles, supplementary angles, vertical angles, adjacent angles and linear pair.

a. Two angles are called complementary angles if the sum of their degree measurements equals 90
degrees. One of the complementary angles is said to be the complement of the other.

ABC is the complement of CBD

b. Two angles are called supplementary angles if the sum of their degree measurements equals 180
degrees. One of the supplementary angles is said to be the supplement of the other.

c. Two pairs of angles are formed by two intersecting lines. Vertical angles are opposite angles in such
an intersection. Vertical angles are equal to each other.

Very often, math questions will require you to work out the values of angles given in diagrams by applying the
relationships between the pairs of angles.

Example 1: Given the diagram below, determine the values of the angles x, y and z.

Solution:
Step 1: x is a supplement of 65.
Therefore, x + 65 =180 x = 180 65 = 115
Step 2: z and 115 are vertical angles.
Therefore, z = 115
Step 3: y and 65 are vertical angles.
Therefore, y = 65
Answer: x = 115, y = 65 and z = 115

d. Two angles which are adjacent and whose non common side are opposite rays and formed a
straight line are called linear pair.

e. Adjacent Angles are two coplanar angles with a common side and a common vertex but, no common
interior points.

IV. Find the value of X and give the measurement of each angle:

SOLUTION:

Since Angles 1 + 2 + 3 = Angle ADE, then:

2x + 6 (angle 1) + 3x + 10 (angle 2) + x + 20 (angle 3) = 24x (angle ADE)

Now, you can solve:
