Unit 1: Basics of Geometry Day 3: Measuring Segments & Angles
Objective To use measurement postulates to find measure of segments and angles
Segment Addition Postulate ABC AB + BC = AC The length of two smaller, adjacent, collinear segments add up to the larger segment. Segment Notations: AB AB Length of AB Used with measurements/lengths Refers to the figure/shape
Angle Addition Postulate A B C D m ABC + m CBD = m ABD The degree measure of two smaller, adjacent, angles add up to the measure of the larger angle. Angle Notations: m ABC Measure of ABC Used with degrees ABC Refers to the figure/shape
Angle Addition Postulate Point L is on the interior of KJM. If m KJM = 145 o, m KJL = (6x) o, and m LJM = (3x+10) o, find x. K J M L 145 o 6x o 3x+10 o m KJL + m LJM = m KJM 6x+ 3x + 10 = 145 9x + 10 = 145 x = 15 *Always check your answer by plugging it into the expressions. *Note the marking for the entire angle.
Definitions Postulate: An undefined rule that is accepted as true without proof Theorem: A statement that must be proved to be true
Linear Pair Postulate If two angles form a linear pair, then they are supplementary. Vertical angles are congruent 1 2 m 1 + m 2 = 180 o Vertical Angles Theorem m 1 = m 3 m 2 = m 4 *Congruent: same size & shape
Solve for all the variables. 3(6z + 7) o 5(2z + 9) o (4y-35) o 5(2z + 9) = 3(6z + 7) 10z + 45 = 18z = 8z 3 = z 75 o 105 o 4y – 35 = 105 4y = 140 y = 35
Find the measure of all angles. A is supplementary to B and complementary to C. *check to make sure your answers make sense with the problem
Did you meet today’s objective? Describe the segment/angle addition postulate Define complementary Define supplementary How do you identify linear pairs? What is their special property? How do you identify vertical angles? What is their special property?
