                                                 Pair of Angles


        Think about the following diagrams:
                                                                                              B

         Given, ∠AOB is a right angle. C is any point in the interior


        of ∠AOB, so the ray  OC divides it in two angles ∠AOC and                                         C
        ∠BOC.

                                                                                               O              A
        Therefore,  ∠AOC +  ∠BOC = 90° (=  ∠AOB)


         Thus,  ∠AOC  and  ∠BOC  form  a  pair  of  complementary angles.  In  other
        words,  if  the  sum  of  two  angles  is  90°,  then  the  angles  are  said  to  be

        complementary angles.
                                                                                                           P
        Here,  ∠LMN is a straight angle, so  ∠LMN = 180°.


        Also, ray  MP stands at point M on line LN.                                L            M            N


        Therefore,  ∠LMP +  ∠NMP = 180°


                                                                                                              145
