ANGLES

Cards (31)

  • Obtuse angle
    An angle that is bigger or greater than a right angle
  • Straight angle
    An angle formed by two rays pointing in exactly opposite directions, which is just a straight line
  • Complementary angles

    Two angles that combine to form a right angle
  • Supplementary angles
    Two angles that combine to form a straight angle
  • Angle
    A measurement of rotation
  • Degree
    A small amount of rotation used to measure angles
  • Angles can't be measured with a ruler or in units like centimeters
  • The word 'degree' is used for different things like temperature and angles</b>
  • Measuring an angle
    1. Place two rays pointing in the same direction
    2. Rotate one ray counter-clockwise
    3. The angle between the rays is measured in degrees
  • Angle of 0 degrees
    • Rays point in the same direction
  • Angle of 90 degrees
    • Rays are perpendicular, forming a right angle
  • Angle of 180 degrees

    • Rays point in opposite directions, forming a straight angle
  • Angle regions
    • Acute angles (0-90 degrees)
    • Obtuse angles (90-180 degrees)
  • Angle of 45 degrees

    • Half of a right angle
  • Angle of 270 degrees
    • Forms a right angle pointing down
  • Angle of 360 degrees

    • Completes a full circle
  • Protractor
    A tool used to measure angles
  • Complementary angles

    Combine to form a right angle (90 degrees)
  • Supplementary angles
    Combine to form a straight angle (180 degrees)
  • Solving for unknown angle in a complementary or supplementary pair
    1. Find total angle (90 or 180 degrees)
    2. Subtract known angle
    3. Remaining angle is the unknown
  • Angle
    Formed when two lines meet at a point (the vertex)
  • Angle
    • Measured in degrees or rotations
  • Types of angles
    • Acute
    • Right
    • Obtuse
    • Reflex
    • Straight
  • Acute angle
    Angle less than 90 degrees
  • Right angle
    Angle exactly 90 degrees
  • Obtuse angle
    Angle greater than 90 degrees but less than 180 degrees
  • Straight angle
    Angle exactly 180 degrees
  • Reflex angle
    Angle greater than 180 degrees but less than 360 degrees
  • Angles
    • Angle A (acute)
    • Angle B (right)
    • Angle C (obtuse)
    • Angle D (right)
    • Angle E (reflex)
  • Angles are puzzles, so it's suggested to watch a playlist on finding internal and external angles
  • The video includes a quick quiz to test understanding of the different angle types
