Angles
Acute Angle An angle that measures between 0 and 90 degrees.
Right Angle An angle that measures 90 .
Obtuse Angle An angle that measures between 90 and 180 degrees.
Straight Angle An angle that measures 180 .
Reflex Angle An angle with measure between 180 and 360 degrees.
Vertical Angles Two angles across from each other when two lines intersect.
Name 2 pairs of vertical angles. 1 & 3 2 & 4
Perpendicular Lines Two lines that intersect to form right angles.
Adjacent Angles Two angles that share a vertex and ray, but no interior points (don’t overlap).
Not Adjacent Angles a b r s Why?
Name 4 pairs of adjacent angles. 1 & 2 2 & 3 3 & 4 1 & 4
Complementary Angles Two angles with measures that add up to 90°.
Find the value of y. y = 90° - 30° =60° y 30
Supplementary Angles Two angles with measures that add up to 180°.
Linear Pair of Angles Two adjacent angles that form a line.
Find the value of x. x = 180° - 40° = 140°
Find x and y. x = 60° y = 180°- 60° y = 120°
What would they measure?
More Examples: #1 (3x + 2) xx X = 22
Example #2 (3x + 6) 2x X = 34.8
Examples #3 ABC and CBD form a right angle. m ABC = 3(m CBD). How much does each angle measure? m CBD = 22.5 m ABC = 67.5
Example #4 RST TSW m RSW = 95 Each angle measures 47.5 degrees
Example #5 RM bisects LRX. m LRM = 6x – 9 m MRX = 3x +12
