Let’s talk about RAY
21
NAME ME!
Name four different rays from the figure below.
22
ANGLE
If two rays have the same
endpoint and do not lie on the
same line, then their union is called
an angle.
The two rays are called its sides, and
their common endpoint is called its
vertex.

ANGLE

PROTRACTOR
Protractor is used to measure an
angle in degrees.

PROTRACTOR POSTULATE
For every angle there is a
unique real number r, called its
degree measure, such that
0< r <180º.
28
KINDS OF ANGLES
Angles can be classified
according to their measures.
They can be a right
angle, an acute angle, or an
obtuse angle.
29
KINDS OF ANGLES
Right angle - is an angle that
measures exactly 90º
Acute angle - is an angle that
measures less than 90º
Obtuse angle - is an angle that
measures more than 90º but less
than 180º 30
KINDS OF ANGLES
Right Acute Obtuse
Angle Angle Angle
31
KINDS OF ANGLES
You can approximate the measures of
angles by estimating their openings if
equal to 90º , less than 90º , or greater
than 90º .
These approximations of angle measures
without using protractors will help you in
classifying angles whether they are right,
acute, or obtuse. 32
Example
Estimate the measure of each angle.
Classify the angle.
m∠GOT < 90º m∠M = 90º m∠SET > 90º
Acute Angle Right Angle Obtuse Angle

Refer to the given figure. Measure and
classify each indicated angle.

Let’s Try
Now, use your protractor to measure
∠𝑈𝑄𝑆.
Angle UQS measures 30º. Thus, 𝑚∠𝑃𝑄𝑇 =
𝑚∠𝑈𝑄𝑆 = 30. Angles PQT and UQS are
congruent angles, denoted by ∠𝑃𝑄𝑇 ≅
∠𝑈𝑄𝑆, which is read as “angle PQT is
congruent to angle UQS.”
36
Congruent angles - these are
angles that have the same
measure.
37
ANGLE BISECTOR
Angle bisector – it divides an angle
into two congruent angles.
Take note: Every angle has exactly
one angle bisector.
38
ANGLE BISECTOR
Refer to the figure below.
39
TRY THIS!
Name each angle bisector and all congruent angles in the figure.
Angle AGN is congruent to
∠𝐶𝐼𝐴 ≅ ∠𝐴𝐼𝑁. 𝑚∠𝐾𝐴𝑌 ≠ 𝑚∠𝑌𝐴𝐸. angle LEG.

ANGLE PAIRS
Angle pairs include
• adjacent angles,
• complementary angles,
• supplementary angles,
• linear pairs, and
• vertical angles.
41
Adjacent Angles
Adjacent angles - are two angles
on the same plane that have a
common side and a common
vertex but no common interior
points
42
Adjacent Angles
Look at ∠𝐴𝐵𝐷 and ∠𝐷𝐵𝐶. What do they
have in common?
43
Complementary Angles
Complementary angles - are two
angles whose measures have
a sum of 90º.
44
Complementary Angles
Look at ∠𝐹𝐸𝐺 and ∠𝐺𝐸𝐷. What is the sum of their
measures? Compare this sum to that of ∠𝑇𝑈𝑉 and
∠𝑋𝑌𝑍. What can you say about the sum of two
pairs of angles?
Adjacent complementary angles Nonadjacent complementary angles
45
Example:
Find the measure of the complement
of an angle whose measure is 55º.
Solution:
Let 𝑥 = the measure of the complement of an angle.
Hence,
𝑥 + 55º = 90º
𝑥 = 90º − 55º By APE: Subtract 55 from both sides.
𝑥 = 35º
. 46
Example:
Check your answer.
𝑥 + 55º = 90º ; x=35º
35º + 55º = 90º True
Hence, the measure of the
complement of a 55º angle is a 35º
angle. 47
Example:
Find the measures of the
complementary angle of a 12º angle
less than twice the other.
Solution:
Let 𝑥 = the measure of the first angle,
2𝑥 − 12 = the measure of the second angle.
48
Supplementary Angles
Supplementary angles - are two
angles whose measures have
a sum of 180º.
49
Supplementary Angles
Look at the following angle pairs: ∠𝑀𝑁𝑂
and ∠𝑂𝑁𝑃, and ∠𝐴𝐵𝐶 and ∠𝑅𝑆𝑇. What is the
sum of the measures of each angle pair?
adjacent supplementary angles nonadjacent supplementary angles
50
Example:
The measure of the supplement of an angle
is 25º more than 4 times the measure of
the angle. Find the measure of each angle.
Solution:
Let 𝑥 = the measure of an angle,
180 − 𝑥 = the measure of its supplement.
Then solve for 𝑥 in the equation 180 − 𝑥 = 4𝑥 + 25.
51
Linear Pairs
A linear pair - consists of two
adjacent angles whose
noncommon sides are opposite
rays.
52
Linear Pairs
Look at ∠VXY and ∠YXZ. How will
you classify this angle pair?
You call ∠𝑉𝑋𝑌 and ∠𝑌𝑋𝑍 a linear pair 53
Example
Find the measure of each angle in
the linear pair.
54
Vertical Angles
When two lines intersect, they
form a pair of nonadjacent angles
called vertical angles.
Vertical angles - are two
nonadjacent angles formed by two
intersecting lines. 55
Vertical Angles
56
Vertical Angles
Take note: Vertical angles are
congruent.
57
Example

where 𝑚∠1 = 2𝑥 + 15 and 𝑚∠2 = 85 − 5𝑥.

3. ∠1 and ∠4
5. ∠4 and ∠5

Perpendicular Lines
When two lines intersect to form right angles,
the two lines are said to be perpendicular to
each other.
60
Parallel Lines
Parallel lines are lines that
do not intersect no matter
how far they are extended.
Lines m and n do not
intersect, and are parallel.
You write this as 𝑚 ∥ 𝑛. The
symbol ∥ is read as “is
Parallel lines are coplanar parallel to”.
