    Study Notes

    Introduction to Angle Properties in Triangles

    • Angle properties in triangles are explored.
    • Exterior angles and their relationships with non-adjacent interior angles are key concepts.

    Example 1: Determining Unknown Angles in a Triangle

    • Triangle MAT's exterior angle is 155 degrees.
    • Interior angles are 40 degrees and an unknown angle (angle 1).
    • The exterior angle and its adjacent interior angle sum to 180 degrees.
    • The sum of interior angles in a triangle is 180 degrees.
    • Angle 1 is calculated as 115 degrees.

    Example 2: Relationship Between Exterior and Non-Adjacent Interior Angles

    • A triangle's exterior angle (D) relates to its non-adjacent interior angles (A and B).
    • The exterior and adjacent interior angles (C and D) are supplementary.
    • The sum of all interior angles in a triangle (A + B + C) is 180 degrees.
    • The exterior angle (D) equals the sum of the two non-adjacent interior angles (A + B).

    Example 3: Solving for Unknown Angles in a Triangle with Parallel Lines

    • The figure shows parallel lines (MQ and NP) and unknown angles (nmo, mno, and qmo).
    • Parallel lines and their angles are crucial in the solution.
    • The interior alternate angles rule applies to the parallel lines and the 67-degree angle.
    • The sum of interior angles of a triangle is 180 degrees.
    • Angles on a straight line are supplementary (sum to 180 degrees).
    • Angle 1 (nmo) is 94 degrees.
    • Angle 2 (mno) is 47 degrees.
    • Angle 3 (qmo) is 19 degrees.

    Key Concepts in Angle Properties

    • Supplementary Angles: Two angles that sum to 180 degrees.
    • Interior Angles of a Triangle: Angles inside a triangle.
    • Exterior Angles of a Triangle: Angles formed by extending a triangle's side.
    • Parallel Lines: Lines that never intersect and have the same slope.
    • Alternate Interior Angles: Angles between parallel lines and on opposite sides of a transversal.
    • Triangle Angle Sum: The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180 degrees.
    • Transitive Property: If a = b and b = c, then a = c.
