Name three types of angles.
"use the relationships among pairs of angles that are vertical angles, adjacent angles, supplementary angles, and complementary angles to determine the measure of unknown angles"
Learning objective:
An angle is formed by two line segments that intersect at a point. Angles are measured in degrees, with a full circle being 360°. There are different types of angles, such as right, acute, and obtuse.
Angles
Angle: An angle is formed when two lines meet at a point. It is the amount of turn between two lines, measured in degrees. Right Angle: A right angle is an angle that measures 90 degrees. Acute Angle: An acute angle is an angle that measures between 0 and 90 degrees.
Concepts:
The angle between two lines that share a common endpoint is called the Vertex Angle. Two intersecting lines form four angles. An angle is measured in degrees and can range from 0 to 360 degrees.
