B E A C D -8 -6 1 3 7 Find the length of the segments:1. AC = 2. BD = 3. AD = 4. BE = Solution: 1. AC = 9 2. BD = 9 3. AD = 11 4. BE = 13
Segment Addition Postulate If three points A, B and C are collinear and B is between A and C, then AB + BC = AC A B C
R S T Example 1: If RS = 15 and ST = 9, then RT = ? Example 2. If ST = 15 and RT = 40, then RS = ? Solution: 1. RT = RS + ST = 15 + 9 = 24 Solution: 2. RT = RS + ST 40 = RS + 15 RS = 25
2x - 8 3x - 12 D S T Example 3: If DT = 60, find the value of x. Then find DS and ST: Solution: DS + ST = DT (2x – 8) + (3x – 12) = 60 5x – 20 = 60 simplify 5x = 80 add 20 to each side x = 16 divide each side by 5 DS = (2x – 8) = 2 (16) – 8 = 24 ST = (3x – 12) = 3 (16) – 12 = 36
Measuring Angles An angle is formed by two rays with the same endpoint. This common endpoint is called the vertex. Angle can be named as: ABC, CBA, B, 1. A B 1 C
Measuring Angles Angles are measured in degrees. The measure of A is written as m A For example: m A = 80º. 80º A
Angles classified by measure • Acute Angle: 0º < x < 90º • Right Angle: x = 90º • Obtuse Angle: 90º < x < 180º 4. Straight Angle: x = 180º
How do we measure angles ?? Angles are measured using protractors.
Using your protractors construct the angles measuring: • 35 º 2. 90 º 3. 105 º 4. 180 º
A B O C Angle Addition Postulate If point B is in the interior of AOC, then m AOB + m BOC = m AOC
T W R S G D F E Example 1: m RST = 50º and m RSW = 125º. What is m TSW? Example 2: m DEG = 145º. What is m GEF? Solution 1. 75º Solution 2. 35º
