B EARING / A ZIMUTH “The US Army defines the azimuth between Point A and Point B as the angle, measured in the clockwise direction, between the north reference ray and Ray AB. For example, if the bearing between Point A and Point B is E 45° S, the azimuth between Point A and Point B is 135°.” [2][3] azimuth [2][3]

M EASUREMENT OF A NGLES Definitions: A degree is 1/360 of the distance rotated in a circle. A rotation is the set of positions that are occupied by a ray as it turns 360°. A half-rotation is the set of positions for 180°.
6
A NGLE M EASURE : T HE P ROTRACTOR P OSTULATE The Protractor Postulate : It is possible to number the rays in a half-rotation with coordinates from 0 to 180, such that positive number differences measure angles. Note: This is the angle version of the Ruler Postulate. This means if rays OA and OB have coordinates a° and b°, AOB = |a – b|. O A B
7
B ETWEENNESS OF R AYS Definition: A ray OB is between rays OA and OC (in the same half-rotation) iff its coordinate is between theirs. As with points (A-B-C), “OB is between OA and OC” is abbreviated “OA-OB-OC”. O A B C

D EFINITIONS A point is the midpoint of a line segment iff it divides the segment into two equal segments. A line bisects an angle iff it divides the angle into two equal angles. Two things are congruent iff they would coincide exactly when superimposed: A B C D
12
D EFINITIONS, CONT. A corollary is a theorem that is easy (usually trivially easy) to prove as a consequence of another theorem or a postulate.
13
T WO B ASIC C OROLLARIES Corollary of the Ruler Postulate: A line segment has exactly one midpoint. Corollary of the Protractor Postulate: An angle has exactly one ray that bisects it.
