    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∠".
