n and m are congruent and supplementary. prove n and m are right angles
Given:
m + n = 180
We're also given n and m are congruent, meaning they are equal. So we can substitute n = m into the supplementary equation:
m + m = 180
To solve this equation for m, we type it in our search engine and we get:
m = 90
This means m = 90, n = 90, which means they are both right angles since by definition, a right angle is 90 degrees.
