Study Notes
Naming Rays
- The first point must be the endpoint of the ray.
- The second point must be any point on the ray, other than the endpoint.
Opposite Rays
- Opposite rays share the same endpoint.
- They form a straight line.
Measuring Angles
- The unit used to measure angles is degrees.
Classifying Angles
- An angle is classified as acute if it measures less than 90°.
- An angle is classified as right if it measures exactly 90°.
- An angle is classified as obtuse if it measures more than 90° but less than 180°.
Angle Bisectors
- Angle bisectors divide an angle into two congruent angles.
- Congruent angles have equal measures.
Angle Addition Postulate
- The Angle Addition Postulate states that the measure of a larger angle is equal to the sum of the measures of its two smaller adjacent angles.
- This can be represented by the equation: m∠ABC + m∠CBD = m∠ABD
Angle Bisector and Measure
- If an angle measures 100° and is bisected, each of the resulting angles will measure 50°.
Angle Measure Symbol
- The symbol for the measure of an angle is "m∠".
