3-1 Arcs and Angles • An angle is the union of two rays that have the same endpoint. • The sides of the angle are the two rays. • The intersection of the two rays is the vertex of the angle.
3-1 Arcs and Angles • If the vertex of the angle is the center of a circle, then the angle is a central angle of the circle. • The portion of the circle inscribed (cut off) by the central angle is called an arc.
3-1 Arcs and Angles • is a straight angle. Its measure is 180o. • is a zero angle. Its measure is 0o. C B A
3-1 Arcs and Angles • Angles are measures in a counter-clockwise direction. • is measured counter-clockwise. Its measure is 45o. • is measured clockwise. Its measure is -45o. C B A
3-1 Arcs and Angles • Angle Measure Postulate • Unique Measure Assumption • Every angle has a unique measure from 0o to 180o. • Unique Angle Assumption • Given any ray VB and a real number r between 0 and 180, there is a unique angle BVA on each side of VB such that • Straight Angle Assumption • If VA and VB are opposite rays, then • Zero Angle Assumption • Is VA and VB are the same ray, then
3-1 Arcs and Angles • If m is the measure of an angle, then the angle is: • a zero angle if and only if m = 0; • an acute angle if and only if 0 < m < 90; • a right angle if and only if m = 90; • an obtuse angle if and only if 90 < m < 180; • a straight angle if and only if m = 180.
3-1 Arcs and Angles • You CAN assume these from a figure: • Collinearity and betweenness of points drawn on the same line; • Intersections of lines at a given point; • Points in the interior of an angle, on an angle, or in the exterior of an angle.
3-1 Arcs and Angles • You CANNOT assume these from a figure: • Collinearity of three or more points that are not drawn on the same line; • Parallel lines; • Exact measures of angles of segments.
