More about Angles An angle divides a plane into three
distinct parts. Points A, B, and C lie on the angle. Points D and E line in the interior of the angle. Points F and G lie in the exterior of the angle.

Measuring Angles To measure an angle we use a
protractor. Place the center of the protractor on the vertex and one side of the angle on either side of the 0° line of the protractor. The protractor will have two scales running from 0° to 180° in opposite directions. Read the measure of the angle by viewing the alignment of the other side of the angle with the proper scale.
PostulatesPostulate 3 (Protractor Postulate)
All angles have measures between 0° and 180°.
Postulate 4 (Angle Addition Postulate) R is in the interior of PQS iff mPQR + mRQS = mPQS.

Classifying Angles There are four types of angles.
Acute angles measure < 90°. Right angles measure 90°.
Obtuse angles measure > 90° but < 180°.
Straight angles measure 180°.
Measure TYV and classify it as right, acute, or obtuse.
TYV is marked with a right angle symbol, so measuring is not necessary.
Answer: is a right angle.
Example 2a:
Measure WYT and classify it as right, acute, or obtuse.
Use a protractor to find that .
Answer: >is an obtuse angle.
Example 2b:
Measure TYU and classify it as right, acute, or obtuse.
Use a protractor to find that m .
Answer: is an acute angle.
Example 2c:
Measure each angle named and classify it as right, acute, or obtuse.
a. CZD
b. CZE
c. DZX
Answer: 150, obtuse
Answer: 90, right
Answer: 30, acute

Congruent Angles Just as segments that have equal
measures are congruent, angles that have the same measures are congruent. To label angles congruent we use tic marks just like we used for segments or multiple rainbows.

More about Congruent Angles
A ray that divides an angle into two congruent angles is called an angle bisector. If AD bisects BAC then BAD is congruent to CAD.
