Introductory Concept
Just like other mathematical concepts, angles are a big
part of our lives. One example is if when we tell the time of the
day. For analog watches and clocks, we tell time by looking at
the placements of the shorter hand to tell the hour and the
longer hand to tell the number of minutes. Opening the door
widely or slightly also involves angles and so much more.

Learning Skills from the MELCs

Classify the different kinds of angles (M7GE–IIIa–3). Specifically, you will:

1. identify different kinds of angles according to their measures;


2. measure and classify different kinds of angles; and
3. relate angles to real life and state how important these are.

Activities

In geometry, an angle is a figure formed by two rays with common endpoint,


and which are not on the same line. The two rays are called the sides of the
angles while the common endpoint of these two rays is called the vertex.

 In Figure 1, rays ⃗
AF and ⃗

sides of the angle.

Naming an Angle

The angle can be named:

We can name angles using the symbol “∠” to denote an angle and these three
different ways:
Ways to Name an Angle Symbol
1. By using the letters of the points on the sides
vertex
of the angle
∠FAR
The angle in Figure 2 can be named: or
 ∠FAR ∠RAF
 ∠RAF vertex
Which is read as:
 angle FAR Note: In using this, the vertex

 angle RAF should always be placed in the


middle of the two other points.
2.By using only the vertex ∠A
∠1
3. By using the number placed in the interior of
the angle

Note:
When naming an angle, we make sure that its name corresponds to the correct
angle we are referring to.

In the figure at the right, we cannot use F

∠A to name a particular angle because it is hard to 2 1


L R
determine which angle we are referring; angle 1 or A
angle 2, these angles have the same vertex
A.
In this case, we name the angles using the three points or the number. Thus,
2
the two angles can be named ∠𝐿𝐴F and ∠F𝐴𝑅 or ∠2
and ∠1 respectively.
The Measure of an Angle

The phrase “measure of an angle” refers to the opening made from one side of
the angle to the other side. To get this
measure, we use a measuring device called the protractor.

Before we can classify angles, we need to know first how to measure them using
the measuring device. To be able to do so, let’s first get familiar with the parts of the
protractor.

Measuring Angles

Now that you are familiar with the parts of the protractor, you are now ready to
measure angles.
Let us consider the two angles below. Both angles are named ∠𝐴𝐵𝐶 but facing
different sides. We can get the measure of both angles by following these steps:

Note:
In this case, we use the inner scale because the
angle is facing the right side.

Angle 1:

The measure of angle 1; ∠𝐴𝐵𝐶, is 30 degrees.


3. Read the scale where it falls
on the other side of the angle.
Angle 2:

Step 3

C

The measure of angle 2;∠𝐴𝐵𝐶, is 30 degrees.

In symbols, we write this as “m∠𝐴𝐵𝐶 = 30°”.

In geometry, there are three classifications of the kinds of angles according to their
measures. These three classifications are:
Classification Definition Example
1. Acute angle
An acute angle is an angle 30o
whose measure is greater
than 0o but less than 90o. o
65

5
2. Right angle A right angle is an angle
whose measure is 90o.

The symbol “┐” in the


figure is used to mark
the right angle.

3. Obtuse angle An obtuse angle is an angle


whose measure is greater
120o
than 90o but less than 180o.

165o
