Study Notes
Introduction to Lines and Angles
- A minimum of two points are required to draw a line.
- In this chapter, properties of angles formed by intersecting lines and intersecting parallel lines will be studied.
Real-Life Applications of Lines and Angles
- Angles are essential in making models using plane surfaces (e.g., making a model of a hut).
- Architects need knowledge of lines and angles to draw building plans.
- Lines and angles are used in science to study properties of light (e.g., refraction).
- Directed line segments are used to study the net effect of forces on a body.
- Angles are used to find the height of a tower or the distance of a ship from a lighthouse.
Basic Terms and Definitions
- A line segment is a part of a line with two end points, denoted by AB.
- A ray is a part of a line with one end point, denoted by AB.
- A line is denoted by AB.
- Collinear points are points that lie on the same line; non-collinear points do not.
- An angle is formed when two rays originate from the same end point (vertex).
- Arms of an angle are the rays that make the angle.
Types of Angles
- Acute angle: measures between 0° and 90°.
- Right angle: exactly 90°.
- Obtuse angle: greater than 90° but less than 180°.
- Straight angle: equal to 180°.
- Reflex angle: greater than 180° but less than 360°.
