Question

Which of the following explains the relationship between angles a and d?

Lines JK and JM intersect at point J, creating four angles identified as angle B, angle D, angle C, and angle A clockwise from the top right.

Adjacent angles
Supplementary angles
Complementary angles
Vertical angles

Answer 1

Answer: Vertical Angles

Explanation:

AI-generated answer

The relationship between angles a and d can be explained as vertical angles. Vertical angles are formed when two lines intersect. In this case, lines JK and JM intersect at point J, creating four angles: angle B, angle D, angle C, and angle A.

Vertical angles are opposite each other and have equal measures. So, angle a and angle d are vertical angles, meaning they have the same measure.

To visualize this, imagine a "+" sign. Angle a is the top left angle, and angle d is the bottom right angle. These angles are across from each other and have the same measurement.

Therefore, the correct answer is vertical angles.

Answer 2

From looking at the graph they are vertical angles because they or the opposite side of each other and across the middle point facing each other.
