Classify Angles
Angle- formed by 2 rays that share a
common vertex. The symbol is a slanted capitol L.
Vertex- The point where the two rays
meet.
Naming an angle
Method 1: Using a 3 letter name (all capitols) ےBAC 1. Name one point on one ray
2. Name the vertex point
3. Name one point on the other ray
Method 2: Using a 1 letter name (this can only be done when there is only one angle with this vertex in a diagram) ے A
1. Name the vertex point
Method 3: Using a numerical name when the number is inside of the 2 rays. ے 1
Classify Angles
Acute Angle-
An angle with a measure greater than 0 and less than 90.
Grade 7 Chapter 7 Page 2 Obtuse Angle- An angle that measures larger than 90 but less than 180
(90< measure <180)
Right Angle- An angle that is exactly 90. The two sides are perpendicular to each other. The notch inside tells us it is a right angle.
Congruent- Having the same measure
Vertical Angles- Opposite angles formed by the intersection of 2 lines. The vertical angles are congruent.
Grade 7 Chapter 7 Page 3 Adjacent Angles - Angles that:
Have the same vertex (B)
share a common side (BC)
do not overlap
To find a missing measure:
1. Figure out what you know about the relationship between the angles :
are they 2 adjacent angles inside of a right angle and should add up to 90
are they 2 adjacent angles inside of a straight angle and should add up to 180
are they vertical angles that are congruent 2. Set up an equation (sum of the parts = whole) 3. Solve the equation
Grade 7 Chapter 7 Page 4
Complementary and Supplementary Angles
Complementary Angles- Two angles that have a sum of 90
Supplementary Angles- Two angles that have a sum of 180
To find a missing measure:
1. Figure out what you know about the relationship between the angles :
are the angles complementary and add up to 90
are the angles supplementary and add up to 180
are they vertical angles that are congruent 2. Set up an equation (sum of the parts = whole) 3. Solve the equation
Grade 7 Chapter 7 Page 5
7-3: Triangles
Triangle- A figure with three sides and three angles. The angles have a sum of 180.
To find a missing measure:
1. Figure out what you know about the relationship between the angles:
are any of the angles right angles, if so it = 90
are the angles congruent
2. Set up an equation (sum of the angles = 180) 3. Solve the equation
How to measure with a protractor:
1. Estimate the measure of your angle. Is it greater, less than or equal to 90 degrees?
2. Line up the center of the protractor with the vertex of the angle you want to measure.
3. Line up 1 side of the angle with the baseline of the protractor (0 degrees) so that the rest of the angle is inside the protractor.
4. Follow the numbers, starting with 0 degrees, until you get to the opposite side of the angle. (It might help if you use a ruler to make the sides of the angle longer) This is the measure of your angle. *
*A common error is to use the wrong set of numbers. Make sure your estimate matches your measurement.
Vertex baseline
How to draw an angle with a protractor:
1. Start by drawing a ray (a line with one endpoint). The endpoint will be the vertex of your angle.
2. Line up the center of the protractor with the vertex of the angle you want to draw.
3. Line up the side of the angle with the baseline (0 degrees) of the protractor. 4. Follow the numbers, starting with 0 degrees, until you get to the number of
degrees that you want your angle to be. Mark this spot.
5. Using a ruler, connect the vertex to the mark you just made. *
