⇒ Supplementary angles are angles that add up to 180°

⇒ ∠1+∠2=180°(angles on a straight line)

∠2=∠4( Corresponding angles are equal m||n)

⇒*NOTE THE FOLLOWING STATEMENT IS TO MAKE YOU UNDERSTAND,IT MUST NOT BE INCLUDED IN YOUR ANSWERBOOK)

If ∠2=∠4

in the place of ∠2 in the equation ∠1+∠2=180° we can substitute ∠4 since the two angles (∠2 and ∠4) are equal by corresponding angles

______________________________________________________

⇒You may include this step now as you now know how ∠4 came up.

∴∠1+(∠4)=180°

∠1+∠4=180°

Now from the above equation we can see that ∠1 and ∠4 are supplementary angles as they both add up to 180°
