A linear pair is formed when two adjacent angles have their non-common side in opposite rays. Their measures will always add up to 180 degrees. Vertival angles are formed by two intersecting lines. Two pairs are formed; they are across from each other (not adjacent), and are congruent.
A linear pair is a pair of angles that lie next to each other on a line and whose measures add to equal 180 degrees. You may start to notice that a linear pair can be found in a lot of places, like where a tree meets level ground or where the body of an airplane connects to its wing.
