Study Notes

Geometry Fundamentals

  • Two rays sharing a common endpoint form an angle.
  • Angles created by the intersection of two planes are known as dihedral angles.

Angle Measurements

  • The magnitude of an angle is referred to as its measure or size.

Etymology

  • The word 'angle' originates from the Latin term 'angulus,' meaning "corner" or "a small bend."

Euclid's Definition

  • Euclid defines a plane angle as the figure formed by two rays extending from a common endpoint, emphasizing the relationship between the rays in a flat, two-dimensional space.
