Theorem 2.5 – Angle Congruence Theorem

Congruence of angles is reflexive, symmetric, and transitive.

Reflexive: 1 1

Symmetric: If 1 2, then 2 1.

Transitive: If 1 2 and 2 3, then 1 3.

Theorem 2.6• Angles supplementary to the same angle or to

congruent angles are congruent.Theorem 2.7• Angles complementary to the same angle or to

congruent angles are congruent.Vertical Angles Theorem• If two angles are vertical angles, then they are

congruent.
