LINES AND ANGLES Basic Terms and Definitions Intersecting Lines and Non-intersecting Lines Pairs of Angles Parallel Lines And A Transversal Lines Parallel To The Same Line Angle Sum Property of A Triangle
(a) Segment: - A part of line with two end points is called a line-segment.
A line segment is denoted by AB and its length is is denoted by AB.
(c) Angle: - An angle is formed by two rays originating from the same end point.
The rays making an angle are called the arms of the angle and the end-points are called the vertex of the angle. (d)Types of Angles:-
(i)
Acute angle: - An angle whose measure lies between 0 and 90, is called an acute angle.
(ii)
Right angle: - An angle, whose measure is equal to 90, is called a right angle.
(iii)
Obtuse angle: - An angle, whose measure lies between 90 and 180, is called an obtuse angle.
(iv)
(v)
Reflex angle: - An angle which is greater than 180 and less than 360, is called the reflex angle.
(vi) (vii)
Complimentary angle: - Two angles, whose sum is 90, are called complimentary angle. Supplementary angle: - Two angles whose sum is 180, are called supplementary angle.
In the above figure ABD and DBC are adjacent angle. Ray BD is their common arm and point B is their common vertex. Ray BA and ray BC are noncommon arms. When the two angles are adjacent, then their sum is always equal to the angle formed by the two non-common arms. Thus,
Here we can observe that ABC and DBC are not adjacent angles, because their non-common arms BD and AB lie on the same side of the common arm BC.
(ix)
Linear pair of angles: - If the sum of two adjacent angles is 180, then their non-common lines are in the same straight line and two adjacent angles form a linear pair of angles.
In the fig.
ABD and CBD form a linear pair of angles because ABD + CBD = 180.
(x)
Vertically opposite angles: - When two lines AB and CD intersect at a point O, the vertically opposite angles are formed.
Here are two pairs of vertically opposite angles. One pair is and the second pair is AOC and BOD The vertically opposite angles are always equal. So,
AOD = BOC
and
AOC = BOD
(e) Intersecting lines and non-intersecting lines: - Two lines are intersecting
if they have one point in common. We have observed in the above figure that lines AB and CD are intersecting lines, intersecting at O, their point of intersection.
P R
Lines PQ and RS are parallel lines.
Q S
The length of the common perpendiculars at different points on these parallel lines is same. This equal length is called the distance between two parallel lines. Axiom 1. If a ray stands on a line, then the sum of two adjacent angles so formed is 180. Conversely if the sum of two adjacent angles is 180, then a ray stands on a line (i.e., the non-common arms form a line).
Axiom 2. If the sum of two adjacent angles is 180, then the non-common arms of the angles form a line. It is called Linear Pair Axiom. (f) Theorem 1. If two lines intersect each other, then the vertically opposite angles are equal. Sol. Given: Two lines AB and CD intersect each other at O. To Prove: -
