6. LINES AND ANGLE Important Notes: What is angle? ‘An angle is formed by two rays with a common endpoint. The Common end point is known as the vertex of the angle and the rays as the sides, sometimes as the legs and sometimes the arms of the angle. x verse ail “Sside: V4 angle We denote the angle by symbol 2, If A is the Vertex, then angle could be represented as 2A. Adjacent Angles Two angles are called adjacent angles if they have a common vertex also one common arm. The other arms of the angle should be opposite side of the common arms. Complimentary Angles ‘Two angles, whose sum of measures is 90° is called Complimentary Angles. Each of these Complimentary Angles are called the complement of each other. Supplementary Angles Two angles, whose sum of measures is 180° is called Supplementary Angles. Each of these Supplementary Angles are called the supplement of each other. Linear Pair Angles Ifa ray stands on a line, then the sum of the adjacent angles so formed is 180° and if the sum of the pair of adjacent angles is 180°, then the non-common arms of the angles form a line. Vertically opposite angles Iftwo lines intersect with each other, then vertically opposite angles are equal Transversal across the parallel lines If the transversal intersects two parallel lines as shown in below figure ‘We can see following angles as depicted in the figure above: 1. 21,22, 23, 24 are on the first parallel line and 25, 26, 27, 28 are on the second parallel line 2. The angles £1, 22, 26, 27 are called exterior angles while the angles 24, 23, 25, 28 are called interior angles. 3. Corresponding Angles: The angles on the same side of the transversal are known as Corresponding angles. And Corresponding Angles axiom states that: 21 = 28, 22 = 25, 24.= 27, £3=26. 4, Each pair of alternate interior angles are equal: £3 = 28 and 24 = 25 5. Co-interior Angles: Each pair of interior angles on the same side of the tr supplementary £4428= 180 and 23 +25 = 180° Converse of transversal across the parallel Lines Ifa transversal intersect two lines such that either any one pair of corresponding angles are equal 2. any one pair of alternate interior angles are equal 3. any one pair of interior angles on the same side of the transversal is supplementary then the two lines are parallel Parallel lines axiom Lines which are parallel to a given line are parallel with each other. Angle sum property of triangles nsversal is AZ” ‘The sum ofall three angles of the triangle is 180° i.e. 2A +2B +24 Exterior angle property of triangles If the side of the triangle is produced, the exterior angle formed is equal to the sum of the interior opposite angle ie. 24 = 21+ 22 80° KEY POINTS Line is a collection of points which has only length neither breadth nor thickness. Line segment: A part of portion ofa line with two end points. Ray: A part of a line with one end point. Collinear points: Three or more points lying on the same line, Angle: An angle is formed when two rays originate from the same end point. The rays making an angle are called the arms and the end point is the vertex. 6. Acute angle: An angle measure between 0° and 90° 7. Right angle: Angle exactly equal to 90° 8. Obtuse angle: An angle greater than 90° but less than 180° 9. Straight angle: An angle exactly equal to 180° 10, Reflex angle: An Angle greater than 180° but less than 360° 11, Complimentary Angles: A pair of angles whose sum is 90° 12, Supplementary Angle: A pair of angles whose sum is 180° 13, Adjacent angles: Two angles are adjacent if (i) They have a common vertex (ii) A common arm (iii) Their non-common arms are on opposite sides of common arm. 14, Linear pair of angles: A pair of adjacent angles whose sum is 180° ZAOB & ZCOB are forming li 15, Intersecting line: Two lines are said to be intersecting when the perpendicular distance between the two lines is not same everywhere. They meet at one point. 16. Non intersecting lines: Two lines are said to be non-intersecting lines when the perpendicular distance between them is same everywhere. They do not meet.
