Adding Angles: B C MBQC 30° mAQB 60°

The document discusses different types of angles: 1) Adding angles: the sum of the measures of two interior angles is equal to the measure of the third angle. 2) Complementary angles: the measures of two angles whose sum is 90 degrees. 3) Supplementary angles: the measures of two angles whose sum is 180 degrees. 4) Linear angles: two angles that share a common side and are formed by a ray starting at that side.

Adding Angles

C
B
m∠BQC =
30°
m∠AQB =
A 60°
Q

As long as B is in the interior of ∠AQC,


m∠AQB + m∠BQC = m ∠AQC
Complementary Angles

C
B
m∠BQC =
30°
m∠AQB =
A 60°
Q

m∠AQB + m∠BQC = 90°,


So m∠AQB and m∠BQC are Complementary
Supplementary Angles

m∠AQB =
120° m∠BQC =
A 60° C
Q

m∠AQB + m∠BQC = 180°,


So m∠AQB and m∠BQC are supplementary
Supplementary Angles

C
B
m∠QBC = 60°

m∠AQB =
A 120°
Q

m∠AQB + m∠QBC = 180°,


So m∠AQB and m∠BQC are also supplementary
Linear Angles
• Two angles are linear when they are formed
by a ray starting at a line B
m∠AQB =
120° m∠BQC = <- linear
A 60° C
Q

C
B
m∠QBC = 60°
<- not linear
m∠AQB =
A 120°
Q
Types of angles

Right Angle (90 °) Acute Angle Obtuse Angle


(look at symbol) (<90 °) (>90 °)

Straight Angle Reflex Angle


(180 °) (>180 °)
Questions
• Why does the adding angles postulate (m∠AQB +
m∠BQC = m∠AQC) fail if point B is not in the interior
of ∠AQC?
– Hint:draw the situation
• True or False:
– All right angles are congruent?
– All acute angles are congruent?
– All obtuse angles are congruent?
• Explain why the definition of interior and exterior does
not make sense for straight angles and reflex angles.
