- - Note: Figure not drawn to scale. In the figure, two lines intersect at a point. Angle 1 and angle 2 are vertical angles. The measure of 72° angle 1 is. What is the measure of angle 2? 72°
Correct answer: A (parsed from the explanation — this source omits an answer key for this item)
Explanation
Choice A is correct. It’s given that angle 1 and angle 2 are vertical angles, and the 72° measure of angle 1 is . Vertical angles have equal measures. Therefore, the 72° measure of angle 2 is . Choice B is incorrect. This is the measure of an angle that is supplementary, not congruent, to angle 1. Choice C is incorrect. This is the sum of the measures of angle 1 and angle 2. Choice D is incorrect and may result from conceptual or calculation errors.
