Study Notes
Parts of an Angle
- An angle is formed by two rays that share a common vertex.
- The initial side is one of the rays.
- The terminal side is the other ray.
Naming an Angle
- Angles are named using three capital letters.
- The middle letter refers to the vertex.
Angle Measurement
- Angles are measured in degrees.
- A full rotation of a ray creates a 360° angle
Measuring an Angle
- Use a protractor to measure angles.
- Align the protractor's midpoint with the vertex of the angle.
- Read the degree marking on the protractor where the terminal side intersects it.
Constructing an Angle
- Draw a ray.
- Place the protractor's midpoint at the endpoint of the ray.
- Mark the desired degree on the protractor.
- Draw a second ray from the endpoint to the marked point.
Types of Angles
- Acute Angle: Less than 90°
- Right Angle: Exactly 90°
- Obtuse Angle: Greater than 90° but less than 180°
- Straight Angle: Exactly 180°
- Reflex Angle: Greater than 180° but less than 360°
Straight Angle
- A straight angle is formed when two rays are prolongations of each other.
- It measures 180°.
Right Angle
- A right angle is half of a straight angle.
- It measures 90°.
Acute Angle
- An acute angle is smaller than a right angle.
- It measures less than 90°.
Obtuse Angle
- An obtuse angle is larger than a right angle but smaller than a straight angle.
- It measures between 90° and 180°.
Reflex Angle
- A reflex angle is larger than a straight angle but smaller than a full rotation.
- It measures between 180° and 360°.
