What is an angle if two adjacent angles add up to 100 degrees?

| The angles BOC and AOD, formed by two intersecting straight lines AC and BD, are vertical. The vertical angles are equal, so Angle 2 = Angle 3.
The same can be obtained from other reasoning:
Angle 3 + Angle 1 = 180 (adjacent), so Angle 3 = 180 – Angle 1;
Angle 2 + Angle 1 = 180 (adjacent), so Angle 2 = 180 – Angle 1;
Therefore, Angle 2 = Angle 3.
If Angle 2 = Angle 3, and Angle 2 + Angle 3 = 100 degrees,
then Angle 2 = Angle 3 = 100/2 = 50 degrees.
By the property of adjacent corners, Angle 1 = 180 – Angle 2 = 180 – 50 = 130 degrees.
Likewise, Angle 1 = 180 – Angle 3 = 180 – 50 = 130 degrees.
Answer: The AOB angle is 130 degrees.
