Marcus states that angle ORP and angle LRP are a linear pair. Which best describes his statement?


He is correct. The angles share a common vertex so they are a linear pair.

He is correct. The angles share a common ray so they are a linear pair.

He is incorrect. Angle ORP does not have a linear pair shown on the diagram.

He is incorrect. Ray RO and ray RL are not opposite rays.

Verified Answer :

Correct answer is D.

Two angles are linear pair if they are supplementary and share a leg. 
∠ORP and ∠LRP are not supplementary, because ray RO and ray RL are not opposite rays.

Therefore, ∠ORP and ∠LRP are not linear pair.
