7-2 Classifying Angles

An angle is formed by two rays with a common endpoint. The two rays are the sides of the angle. The common endpoint is the vertex.

Angles are measured in degrees (°).

7-2 Classifying Angles

An angle’s measure determines the type of angle it is.

A right angle is an angle that that measures exactly 90°. Thesymbol indicates a right angle.An acute angle is an anglethat measures less than 90°.

An obtuse angle is an anglethat measures more than 90°but less than180°.

A straight angle is an anglethat measures 180°.

Angles A and B are complementary. If mA is 56°, what is the mB?

Additional Example 3: Finding Angle Measures

Since A and B are complementary, mA + mB = 90°.

Course 2

7-2 Classifying Angles

mA + mB = 90°

56° + mB = 90°

– 56° – 56°

mB = 34°

Substitute 56° for mA.

Subtract 56° from both sides to isolate mB.

The measure of B = 34°.

Angles P and Q are supplementary. If mP is 32°, what is the mQ?

Check It Out: Example 3

Since P and Q are supplementary, mP + mQ = 180°.

Course 2

7-2 Classifying Angles

mP + mQ = 180°

32° + mQ = 180°

– 32° – 32°

mQ = 148°

Substitute 32° for mP.

Subtract 32° from both sides to isolate mQ.

The measure of Q = 148°.
