Two angles are supplementary if their measures sum 180°.
Linear angle pairs are adjacent angles (they are together) and they form a straight angle, which is 180°. Therefore, they are supplementary.
But two angles may be separated and yet add 180°, then they are supplementary but are not linear angle pairs.
85- (3.5*12)
* means times
I think this is correct.
The tree is 25 feet tall. Given the height of the stick and the shadow it cast, the angle formed by the sun and the stick's height can be obtained by taking the Inverse Tangent of 3/5. This is equal to 30.93. This angle is equal to the angle formed by the sun and the tree's height. Using the tangent formula, Tan (30.93)=tree's shadow (15 ft)/ height of the tree, giving the answer 25 feet.
