Theorem 1.8: If the exterior sides of two adjacent, acute angles are perpendicular, then the adjacent angles are......
If the exterior sides of two adjacent, acute angles are perpendicular, then the adjacent angles are complementary. Another version of this theorem is "If A is in the interior of right angle ∠XYZ, then ∠XYAand ∠ZYA are complementary."
The measure of angle ABC is denoted
m∠ABC. Note we are distinguishing between the angle as a set of points and its measure. We will write m∠1=90, not ∠1=90.
