Week 8

Remember no tutorial lesson this week

This lesson looking at angles and measuring them
Week 8 Learning
The exam grade will go towards Sem 2 that is why it is marked Term 3

Be sure you have a good ruler and a protractor

Measuring Angles
• This protractor measures from 0 to 180 degrees.

Outer scale
Inner scale

Base line Centre Point: Align with the vertex

Measuring Angles
• A complete circle is equal to 360
degrees – a revolution.

• To find the size of an angle greater

than 180 degrees, measure the inside
of the angle and subtract from 360
degrees.

135 degrees
Measuring Angles
• What does the purple angle equal?

Drawing Angles
Construct an angle of 54o

1. Draw the base line with your ruler

2. Mark the centre point of the line

3. Line the protractor up on your base line and

centre point

4. Find the degree of the angle you want and

mark it

5. Use a ruler to connect the mark to your

centre point

6. Label the angle

Measuring Angles
• The common point B is called the
‘vertex’ of the angle.
• Two segments BA and BC are called
as 'arms' (or sides) of the angle.
• The figure shows two angles:
i) ABC ii) CBA
• Note that, vertex of the angle is
always written in the middle.
Classifying angles
Classifying Angles (match these)
a) 90 b) 237  c) 70  d) 360 
e) 125  f) 180  g) 340  h) 98 

a) b) c)
Complementary Angles
• When the sum of two angles is 90
degrees, the two angles are called
complementary angles.

90 – 65 = Complementary angle

65
Supplementary Angles
• Supplementary angles add up to 180 degrees

180 – __ = Supplementary angle

120
Revolutions
• A complete circle is equal to 360
degrees – a revolution.

360 – __ = revolution angles

110 degrees
Problem Solving
• Solve all the angles

Hint: Remember to give your reasons e.g (alternate angles)

 Triangles
• Triangles have 3 sides, 3 angles and 3 vertices.

• Triangles can be named using the 3 Capital Letters of the vertices.
