The word in the problem that indicates is a negative number is “descend”
Adjacent angles are angles with a common side and vertex, linear pairs are adjacent angles that are supplementary, and vertical angles are angles made by the same two lines but on opposite sides.
For the first one, 5 and 6 clearly do not share a side but they are made up by the same 2 lines and are opposite of each other, making them vertical.
For the next one, since the angles only share 1 line (and not a side) they can't be any of the above.
You have to explain how you knew to use 55 and 120, not another option.
Hope it helped! :)
