1.3c: Angle addition postulate Common Core State Standards for Mathematical Content Congruence G-CO Prove geometric theorems [Focus on validity of underlying reasoning while using variety of ways of writing proofs] • G-CO.9 Prove theorems about angles. : .
Angle Addition Postulate • If R is in the interior of PQS, then m PQR + m RQS = m PQS. P R 30 Q 20 S
Example of Angle Addition Postulate 100 Ans: x+40 + 3x-20 = 8x-60 4x + 20 = 8x – 60 80 = 4x 20 = x 40 60 Angle PRQ = 20+40 = 60 Angle QRS = 3(20) -20 = 40 Angle PRS = 8 (20)-60 = 100
Find the m< BYZ -2a+48 4a+9 4a+9
Angle bisector: a ray that bisects an angle into two congruent angles
E H F G
Last example: Solve for x. BD bisects ABC A x+40=3x-20 40=2x-20 60=2x 30=x D x+40o 3x-20o C B Why wouldn’t the Angle Addition Postulate help us solve this initially?
