To denote the measure of an angle we write an
“m”in front of the symbol for the angle.
Here are some common angles and their measurements.

Congruent Angles
•So, two angles are congruent if and only if
they have the same measure.
•So, The angles below are congruent.

Types of Angles
•An acuteangle is an angle that measures less than
90 degrees.
•A rightangle is an angle that measures exactly 90
degrees.
•An obtuseangle is an angle that measures more
than 90 degrees.

acute right obtuse
•A straightangle is an angle that measures 180
degrees. (It is the same as a line.)
•When drawing a right angle we often mark its
opening as in the picture below.

Types of Angles
Perpendicular Lines
•Two lines are perpendicular if
they intersect to form a right
angle.See the diagram.
•Suppose angle 2 is the right
angle. Then since angles 1 and 2
are supplementary, angle 1 is a
right angle too. Similarly, angles
3 and 4 are right angles.
•So, perpendicular lines intersect
to form fourright angles.

Adjacent Angles
Adjacent angles share a common vertex and
one common side.
Adjacent angles are “side by side”
and share a common ray.

Transversal
•Definition:A line that intersects two or more lines in a
plane at different points is called a transversal.
•When a transversal tintersects line nand m, eight angles
of the following types are formed:
Exterior angles
Interior angles
Consecutive interior angles
Alternative exterior angles
Alternative interior angles
Corresponding angles

Corresponding Angles
Corresponding Angles:Two angles that occupy
corresponding positions.

The corresponding angles are the ones at the same location
at each intersection
Angles and Parallel Lines
•If two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then the
following pairs of angles are congruent.
1.Corresponding angles
2.Alternate interior angles
3.Alternate exterior angles
Proving Lines Parallel
•If two lines are cut by a transversal and corresponding
angles are congruent, then the lines are parallel.DC
BA
Alternate Angles
•Alternate Interior Angles: Two angles that lie between parallel
lines on opposite sides of the transversal (but not a linear pair).
•Alternate Exterior Angles: Two angles that lie outside parallel
lines on opposite sides of the transversal.
