Chapter 1 Section 6Angles

Rays

• A Ray has one endpoint and goes forever in one direction

• A Ray is named with the endpoint and one point on the ray

The Ray

A

B

Is called Ray BA never Ray AB

Name The Ray

G

R

Angle• 2 rays with a

common endpoint

• The common endpoint is called the Vertex

• The rays are called Sides

3 Letter Angle Name

• A 3 letter angle name must be used if more than one angle shares a vertex

If you named an angle L RWould you refer to L TRF , L TRS or L SRF?

To Read an angle name

• Pick the first letter is on a side, the middle letter is the vertex, and the third letter is on the other side

Angle Measurement

• Angles are measured in degrees• All Angles have measurements

between 0 and 1800

The restrictions on an angle are 00 ≤ any angle ≤ 1800

Special angles

• An angle of measure 00 is a ray• An Angle of measure 1800 is called a

Straight Angle• A Straight Angle is formed by

Opposite Rays• An angle with a measure of 900 is

called a Right Angle

Angle CongruenceIf 2 angles have the same measure then they are congruent

If L Q L R then m L Q m L R

Angle Addition Postulate

If R is on the interior of angle PQSThen m L PQR + m L RQS = m L PQS

Classifying Angles

Degree Measure Classification

00 < angle < 900 Acute900 < angle < 1800 Obtuse

angle = 900 Rightangle = 1800 Straight

Restrictions on an Angle

• If L NHM is Obtuse then900 < L NHM < 1800

• If L KJW is Acute then00 < L NHM < 900

Restrictions on an Angle

• If L NHM is Obtuse and L NHM = 2x+4 then find the restrictions on x

900 < L NHM < 1800 90 < 2x+4 < 180

86 < 2x < 17643 < x < 88

Restrictions on an Angle

If L DRW is Obtuse and L DRW = 3x + 9 find the restrictions on x

___0 < L DRW < ___0
