  1. Measuring angles

  2. Angle: formed by two rays with common endpoint • The rays are the sides of the angle • The endpoint is the vertex of the angle

  3. Notation • 3 Ways • Vertex (least preferred) • A number • A point on each ray and the vertex (vertex must be in the middle)

  4. Example 1

  5. Measuring angles Angles are measured in degrees using a protractor

  6. Types of Angles • Acute angle: measure is less than 90º but greater than zero

  7. Right Angle: Measure is exactly 90º

  8. Obtuse angle: Measure is greater than 90º but less than 180º

  9. Straight Angle: Measure is exactly 180º
