Introduction to Angles Complementary and Supplementary
Lines, Rays, and Angles A line goes forever in both directions. It is perfectly straight, and never ends. A ray goes forever in one direction. It has one endpoint. An angle is two rays that share an endpoint.
Parts of an Angle • The point where the rays intersect is called the vertex of the angle. • The two rays are called the sides of the angle.
Naming Angles ABC A • Use the vertex and a point from each ray to name the angle. The vertex must be the middle letter. CBA B C Sometimes we put this symbol in front of an angle:
Complementary Angles • Two angles are called complementary angles if the sum (add) of their degree measurements equals 90 degrees. • Complementary Angles make a Right Angle.
Example: Complementary Angles
Supplementary Angles • Two angles are called supplementary angles if the sum of their degree measurements equals 180 degrees. • Supplemental Angles make a Straight Line.
