What is a linear angle and what is a complementary angle?

linear angle: when 2 adjacent angles (angles that share one ray to form a larger angle) form a larger angle that equals 180degrees (supplementary)
complementary: when 2 angles added together make 90degrees (right angle)

A linear angle is a straight line or an angle of 180. A complementary angle is one which when added to another makes 90

A linear angle is a straight angle and is equal to 180 degrees or pi radians.
Compementary angles are acute angles that add to a right angle which is 90 degrees or pi/2 radians.
60 is the complement of 30 because their sum is 90 degrees.

complentary angles add to equal 90 degrees and linear pair of angles are on a line together and add to equal 180 degrees
