ANGLES AND POINTSAn Angle is a figure formed by two rays with a common endpoint, called the vertex.
vertex
ray
rayAngles can have points in the interior, in the exterior or on the angle.
Example: Points A, B and C are on the angle. D is in the interior and E is in the exterior. B is the vertex.

3 Ways to name an angleWe can name an angle using:
(1) Using 3 points
(2) Using 1 point
(3) Using a number

Using 3 points: vertex must be the middle letter
This angle can be named as
Using 1 point: using only vertex letter
* Use this method is permitted when the vertex point is the vertex of one and only one angle.
Since B is the vertex of only this angle, this can also be called .

Naming an Angle - continued
2∠
Using a number: A number (without a degree symbol) may be used as the label or name of the angle. This number is placed in the interior of the angle near its vertex. The angle to the left can be named
as .
* The “1 letter” name is unacceptable when …more than one angle has the same vertex point. In this case, use the three letter name or a number if it is present.

4 Types of Angles
Acute Angle: an angle whose measure is less than 90°.
Right Angle: an angle whose measure is exactly 90°.
Obtuse Angle: an angle whose measure is between 90° and 180°.
Straight Angle: an angle that is exactly 180°.

Measuring Angles Just as we can measure segments, we can also measure angles.
We use units called degrees to measure angles.
• A circle measures _____
• A (semi) half-circle measures _____
• A quarter-circle measures _____
• One degree is the angle measure of 1/360th of a circle.

180º
90º

Adding Angles
When you want to add angles, use the notation m1, meaning the measure of ∠1.
If you add m∠1 + m∠2, what is your result?
m∠1 + m∠2 = 58°.
Therefore, m∠ADC = 58°.
m∠1 + m∠2 = m∠ADC also.

Example: Angle Addition
R
M K
W
3x + x + 6 = 90 4x + 6 = 90 – 6 = –64x = 84x = 21
K is interior to ∠MRW, m ∠ MRK = (3x), m∠ KRW = (x + 6) and m∠MRW = 90º. Find m∠MRK.
3xx+6 Are we done?
m∠MRK = 3x = 3•21 = 63º
First, draw it!

Angle Bisector
An angle bisector is a ray in the interior of an angle that splits the angle into two congruent angles.

Example: Since ∠4 ∠ 6, is an angle bisector.

Congruent Angles
∠3 ∠ 5.53
Definition: If two angles have the same measure, then they are congruent.
Congruent angles are marked with the same number of “arcs”.
The symbol for congruence is .
