An angle is a set of points consisting of two rays, or half-lines, with a common endpoint. The endpoint is called the vertex of the angle. The rays are called the sides of the angle.

Measuring angles is similar to measuring segments.
The unit most commonly used for angle measure is the degree. Below is such a unit. Its measure is 1 degree, or 1°.

Basic Geometric Figures b
Name an angle in five different ways, and given
an angle, measure it with a protractor.
A device called a protractor is used to measure angles. Protractors have two scales. To measure an angle like below, we place the protractor’s at the vertex and line up one of the angle’s sides at Then we check where the angle’s other side crosses the scale. In the figure, is on the inside scale, so we check where the angle’s other side crosses the inside scale. We see that m ∠Q = 145°. The notation m ∠Q is read “the measure of angle Q.”
