Study Notes
Angles and Their Properties
- Angles are measured in degrees and denoted by the angle symbol.
- An angle consists of two rays called arms that meet at a vertex.
- The arc between the arms represents the angle's measure.
Parallel and Perpendicular Lines
- Parallel lines are lines that never intersect and are denoted by two arrows on the lines.
- Perpendicular lines intersect at a right angle (90 degrees) denoted by a small square at the intersection.
- Statements showing parallelism or perpendicularity use the letter of the ray followed by the symbol (|| for parallel, ⊥ for perpendicular) followed by the letter of the other ray.
Angle Relationships
- Complementary angles: Two angles that add up to 90 degrees.
- Supplementary angles: Two angles that add up to 180 degrees.
- Adjacent angles: Share a common vertex and a common arm.
- Intersecting lines: Lines that cross each other at a point.
Types of Angles
- Acute angle: Less than 90 degrees.
- Right angle: Exactly 90 degrees.
- Obtuse angle: Greater than 90 degrees but less than 180 degrees.
- Straight angle: Exactly 180 degrees.
- Reflex angle: Greater than 180 degrees but less than 360 degrees.
- Revolution angle: 360 degrees.
Naming Angles
- Use capital letters to name angles.
- The angle symbol followed by the vertex letter names an angle.
- When multiple angles exist, use three letters (vertex letter in the middle) to specify a particular angle.
Angles at a Point
- Angles at a point add up to 360 degrees and are called "angles in a revolution."
Vertically Opposite Angles
- Formed on either side of the point where two straight lines intersect.
- Vertically opposite angles are equal.
Transversal Lines
- A line that intersects two or more other lines.
- Angles formed by a transversal are named based on their shape and letter configuration.
- The letters may be rotated or flipped.
Substitution
- Unknown angle sizes can be represented by a pronumeral.
- Statements about angles should include a reason justifying the used geometric property.
