The sum of adjacent angles is 180 degrees.
The sum of adjacent angles is 180 degrees.
To solve this problem, let's first understand the concept of adjacent angles. Adjacent angles share a common vertex and a common side. When two adjacent angles are formed by two intersecting lines, they often form what is known as a linear pair.
According to the Linear Pair Postulate, if two angles form a linear pair, then the sum of these adjacent angles is degrees. This is because these angles lie on a straight line, effectively forming a straight angle, which measures degrees.
Let's apply this knowledge to the statement in the problem:
The statement says, "The sum of adjacent angles is 180 degrees." In the context of the Linear Pair Postulate, this is indeed correct as adjacent angles that create a linear pair sum to degrees.
Therefore, when the statement refers specifically to linear pairs, it is true.
Thus, the solution to the problem is True.
