What are vertically opposite angles?
Show answer
When two straight lines cross, the angles directly opposite each other are equal. These are called vertically opposite angles. If one angle at a crossing is 7070^\circ, the angle opposite it is also 7070^\circ.
What are giving reasons?
Show answer
Every step in a geometry answer needs a reason - the name of the rule used. For example: "x=110x = 110^\circ (corresponding angles)." Marks are awarded for the reason as well as the value, so never leave it out.
