Vertical Angles and Adjacent Angles - Geometry

TL;DR

This content explains the concepts of vertical angles and adjacent angles and how to solve problems involving them.

Transcript

here we have two lines intersecting each other let's call this line L and line M as a result they form four angles angle one two three and four which of these angles are vertical angles and which ones are adjacent angles what would you say vertical angles they're across from each other and they share a common vertex so let's put some points on this...
