Angles Mathematics

Angles 90°

• An angle is defined as the amount of turn

between two rays that share a common end
point.
• Angles are measured in degrees

 Naming Angles

One way is to use the ∠

symbol followed by 1
three letters.

The first and third letters

indicate points on the

∠ __
A __
B __
two arms.
C
The letter in the middle
is the vertex.

 Naming Angles

using the ∠ symbol only

with the vertex point. 1
The angle would
be called ∠B.

by using the ∠ symbol ∠ABC ∠CAB

followed by the letter or
number between the
∠CBA ∠BCA
angle.
This would be ∠1.

 Measuring Angles
Place the center of the protractor on the vertex B

 Measuring Angles
Place the center of the protractor on the vertex B
Adjust the 0° baseline of the protractor so that it lines up
with line BC

B C
 Measuring Angles
Place the center of the protractor on the vertex B
Adjust the 0° baseline of the protractor so that it lines up
with line BC
Since the angle is acute and the 0° line or baseline was used from
the right, you will take the reading from the inner scale

30°

(90° + 45°) is what kind

of angle?

Let’s Review!

It is the sum of
two right angles.
