Does the drawing show an adjacent angle?
Adjacent angles are angles whose sum together is 180 degrees.
In the attached drawing, it is evident that there is no angle of 180 degrees, and no pair of angles can create such a situation.
Therefore, in the drawing there are no adjacent angles.
Not true
If one of two corresponding angles is a right angle, then the other angle will also be a right angle.
Two angles are adjacent when they: (1) share the same vertex point, (2) have one side in common, and (3) don't overlap each other. Think of them as neighboring angles!
No! Adjacent angles only add to 180° when they form a linear pair on a straight line. Adjacent angles can have any sum - they just need to be next to each other.
Looking at the intersection, while there are angles formed, no pair of angles shares exactly one common side while being positioned next to each other without gaps or overlaps.
Look for angles that are touching each other! They should share a vertex and have exactly one ray in common between them, like two puzzle pieces fitting together.
Adjacent angles are next to each other and share a side. Vertical angles are opposite each other when two lines intersect - they don't share any sides but are always equal!
