4 ANGLE MEASURE

Define the following vocabulary terms.

angle - The intersection of twononcollinear
___________________ rays at a common endpoint. The
sides
rays are called _____________ and the common endpoint is called the
vertex
_______________.

side -

rays
The ____________ of an angle.

vertex -
endpoint
The common _________________ of an angle.

interior -
interior
A point is in the _______________ of an angle if it does not lie on the

angle
____________ itself and it lies on a segment with endpoint that are on the sides of
the angle.
exterior -
exterior
A point is in the _______________ of an angle if it is neither on the _____________
angle
interior
nor in the ________________ of the angle.

degree -

angles arcs An arc of a

A unit of measure used in measuring ______________ and _________.
circle with a measure of 1 degree is 1/360 of the entire circle.

right angle -
90
An angle with a degree measure of __________.

acute angle -
less than 90
An angle with a degree measure of ___________________________________.

obtuse angle -
greater than 90
An angle with a degree measure of ___________________________________.

straight angle -
180
An angle with a degree equal to __________.

angle bisector -

ray congruent
A ___________ that divides an angle into two ________________ angles.

 An angle is formed by 2 rays with a common endpoint. The
vertex
rays are the sides of the angle. The endpoint is the vertex of
sides the angle.
and are the sides of the angle. is the common
endpoint call the vertex.

Angles are named using three (3) letters, with the vertex in
the middle.

or
xp is not sufficient because there
, are multiple angles with the same vertex .

Measuring Angles
A protractor can be used to measure an angle. Angles can be measured in two different units.
Radians - We will come back to this unit of measure later in the year
Degrees - A degree results from dividing the distance around a circle into 360 parts.

Two angles are congruent angles if they have the same measure.
