It is a pair of adjacent angles in which the non common arms form a Straight Lines.
A linear pair of angles is formed when two lines intersect. Two angles are said to be linear if they are adjacent angles formed by two intersecting lines. The measure of a straight angle is 180 degrees, so a linear pair of angles must add up to 180 degrees. |
Illustration: Find the values of the angles x, y and z in each of the following: Solution: 110 + x = 180 : x = 180 - 110 = 70
y = 180 - 80 = 100 (i) Also Y + Z = 180 [Linear pair] 100 + Z = 180 : Z = 180 - 100 = 80

Illustration: Find the value of x if it forms a linear pair with angle whose measure is 118 degrees.
Solution: As x and angle 118 degrees forms a pair of linear angle. Hence we must have

Which of the following statement is false. 1. If the sum of two adjacent angles is 180 degrees ,then the non-common arms of the angles form a line. 2. The sum of all angles about a point is 360 degrees. 3.The sum of the angles on the same side of a line at a given point is 90 degrees. 4. If a ray stands on a line ,sum of two adjacent angles so formed is 360 degrees. | |||

It was a good experience with Abhyas Academy. I even faced problems in starting but slowly and steadily overcomed. Especially reasoning classes helped me a lot.
Being a parent, I saw my daughter improvement in her studies by seeing a good result in all day to day compititive exam TMO, NSO, IEO etc and as well as studies. I have got a fruitful result from my daughter.
About Abhyas metholodology the teachers are very nice and hardworking toward students.The Centre Head Mrs Anu Sethi is also a brilliant teacher.Abhyas has taught me how to overcome problems and has always taken my doubts and suppoeted me.
My experience was very good with Abhyas academy. I am studying here from 6th class and I am satisfied by its results in my life. I improved a lot here ahead of school syllabus.
My experience with Abhyas is very good. I have learnt many things here like vedic maths and reasoning also. Teachers here first take our doubts and then there are assignments to verify our weak points.
I have spent a wonderful time in Abhyas academy. It has made my reasoning more apt, English more stronger and Maths an interesting subject for me. It has given me a habbit of self studying
A marvelous experience with Abhyas. I am glad to share that my ward has achieved more than enough at the Ambala ABHYAS centre. Years have passed on and more and more he has gained. May the centre flourish and develop day by day by the grace of God.
One of the best institutes to develope a child interest in studies.Provides SST and English knowledge also unlike other institutes. Teachers are co operative and friendly online tests andPPT develope practical knowledge also.
Abhyas is a complete education Institute. Here extreme care is taken by teacher with the help of regular exam. Extra classes also conducted by the institute, if the student is weak.
My experience with Abhyas academy is very good. I did not think that my every subject coming here will be so strong. The main thing is that the online tests had made me learn here more things.
