Lesson 1-4 Angles Lesson 1-4: Angles

Angle and Points ray vertex ray 10/17/2017 Angle and Points An Angle is a figure formed by two rays with a common endpoint, called the vertex. ray vertex ray Angles can have points in the interior, in the exterior or on the angle. A E D B C Points A, B and C are on the angle. D is in the interior and E is in the exterior. B is the vertex. Lesson 1-4: Angles

10/17/2017 Naming an angle: (1) Using 3 points (2) Using 1 point (3) Using a number – next slide Using 3 points: vertex must be the middle letter This angle can be named as Using 1 point: using only vertex letter * Use this method is permitted when the vertex point is the vertex of one and only one angle. Since B is the vertex of only this angle, this can also be called . A C B Lesson 1-4: Angles

Naming an Angle - continued 10/17/2017 Naming an Angle - continued Using a number: A number (without a degree symbol) may be used as the label or name of the angle. This number is placed in the interior of the angle near its vertex. The angle to the left can be named as . A B 2 C * The “1 letter” name is unacceptable when … more than one angle has the same vertex point. In this case, use the three letter name or a number if it is present. Lesson 1-4: Angles

Example Therefore, there is NO in this diagram. 10/17/2017 Example K is the vertex of more than one angle. Therefore, there is NO in this diagram. There is Lesson 1-4: Angles

4 Types of Angles Acute Angle: Right Angle: Obtuse Angle: 10/17/2017 4 Types of Angles Acute Angle: an angle whose measure is less than 90. Right Angle: an angle whose measure is exactly 90 . Obtuse Angle: an angle whose measure is between 90 and 180. Straight Angle: an angle that is exactly 180 . Lesson 1-4: Angles

10/17/2017 Measuring Angles Just as we can measure segments, we can also measure angles. We use units called degrees to measure angles. A circle measures _____ A (semi) half-circle measures _____ A quarter-circle measures _____ One degree is the angle measure of 1/360th of a circle. 360º ? 180º ? ? 90º Lesson 1-4: Angles

10/17/2017 Adding Angles When you want to add angles, use the notation m1, meaning the measure of 1. If you add m1 + m2, what is your result? m1 + m2 = 58. m1 + m2 = mADC also. Therefore, mADC = 58. Lesson 1-4: Angles

Angle Addition Postulate 10/17/2017 Angle Addition Postulate Postulate: The sum of the two smaller angles will always equal the measure of the larger angle. Complete: m  ____ + m  ____ = m  _____ MRK KRW MRW Lesson 1-4: Angles

Example: Angle Addition 10/17/2017 Example: Angle Addition K is interior to MRW, m  MRK = (3x), m KRW = (x + 6) and mMRW = 90º. Find mMRK. First, draw it! 3x + x + 6 = 90 4x + 6 = 90 – 6 = –6 4x = 84 x = 21 3x x+6 Are we done? mMRK = 3x = 3•21 = 63º Lesson 1-4: Angles

10/17/2017 Angle Bisector An angle bisector is a ray in the interior of an angle that splits the angle into two congruent angles. Example: Since 4   6, is an angle bisector. 5 3 Lesson 1-4: Angles

Congruent Angles Definition: 10/17/2017 Congruent Angles Definition: If two angles have the same measure, then they are congruent. Congruent angles are marked with the same number of “arcs”. The symbol for congruence is  3 5 Example: 3   5. Lesson 1-4: Angles

Example Draw your own diagram and answer this question: 10/17/2017 Example Draw your own diagram and answer this question: If is the angle bisector of PMY and mPML = 87, then find: mPMY = _______ mLMY = _______ Lesson 1-4: Angles
