Supplementary Angles that do not Form a Linear Pair



           This is a picture of a chair in my kitchen. The cross in the back was put their for decoration, comfort, and support. If there was no cross in the back the chair would not look very good, your back would not feel as comfortable, and the wood would not be as sturdy. Line A and B are perpendicular to each other. Since they are perpendicular to each other they form right angle. Angle C and angle D are both right angles so they have a measure of 90 degrees. Supplementary angles equal 180 degrees when combined; angle C and angle D are supplementary. Angle C and angle D do not form a linear pair because they are not adjacent to each other.

Non-congruent Alternate Interior Angles




This is a picture of a polar coordinates board that I took during study hall. This board is very useful for math. Line A and B appear parallel at first sight but are really not not parallel. The pink line is a transversal. Angle x and angle y are alternate interior angles.  These two angles are not congruent becaue line A and B are not parallel.

This second picture is a picture of a very loopey polar graph.
