What are Angles?

- The space between two intersecting straight


  lines are known as Angles.
- For example:
In the figure below, AB and BC are two straight lines that intersect at the point
B. The space between AB and BC can be defined as where, B is the given angle.
How to Name/Label Angles?
• We
  can Name the angles by the letters which have been used to shape the
Angle, with the Middle letter representing the given Angle.
#Example 1:

In the figure alongside we can observe that the letters A, B and C have been
used to shape the angle and, B is the letter which represents the angle. So the
angle can be named as or
How to Name/Label Angles?
• 
#Example 2:

In the above figure, lines can be seen intersecting at point A,B,C and D respectively. So, the
angles must be formed at those intersections.
• “a” is formed at the intersection of line AC and BA. So the name of the angle at “a” must be:

• Similarly, “z” is formed at the point of intersection of line BC and DC.


z=
Types of Angles
Type of angles Description
Acute Angle An Angle less than 90°
Obtuse Angle An Angle greater than 90°
Right Angle An Angle equal to 90°.
Straight Angle An Angle which is exactly 180°.
Reflex Angle An Angle greater than 180°
.
Parallel Lines:
• The
  lines which are always at the same distance (equidistant), and never meet are
known as parallel lines:
“Always the same distance apart and never touching”
• Generally we can identify the parallel lines by “>” or “<” symbols which have been
drawn on the pair of straight lines.
• In the figure below the red line is parallel to the blue line which can be denoted as
RDXG.
Perpendicular Lines
•  The pair of straight lines which form a right angle (9) at the point of
intersection are known as perpendicular lines.
“Always have a right angle between them.”
• Generally, we can identify perpendicular lines by “ ” symbol drawn at the
point of intersection.
• In the figure given below the red line is perpendicular to the blue line which
can be denoted as RD SG
Pair of angles
•  When parallel lines are crossed by another line, many angles are formed.

The line that crosses the parallel line is called a “Transversal”
In the figure below, AB and XY are the pair of parallel lines [ABXY]and the parallel
lines are crossed by line “RG” which is the Transversal.
Pair of angles
# Exterior Angles: The angles which are formed outside of the parallel lines are known
as Exterior angles.
In the figure below, “a”, “b”, “r” and “g” are the Exterior angles.
Pair of angles
# Interior Angles: The angles which are formed inside of the parallel lines are known
as Interior angles.
In the figure below, “x”, “y”, “m” and “j” are the Interior angles.
Pair of angles
•#Vertically
  Opposite Angles: The angles formed opposite to each other when
two lines cross each other are known as Vertically Opposite Angles.
Vertically Opposite Angles are always equal.
Mathematically,
Pair of angles
• Linear Pair (Supplementary Angles):
Two angles are said to be a linear pair if their sum is a straight angle (180°).
In the figure, AOB and BOC are linear pair because they are the adjacent
angles whose sum is a straight angle (180o).
AOB + BOC = straight angle = 180o
Pair of angles
• Right Angle (Complementary Angles):
Two angles are said to be complementary if their sum is 90°.
In the givenfigure, AOB + BOC = 90°.

Therefore, AOB and BOC are complementary angles.


Also, complement of AOB = 90o –BOC and complement of
BOC = 90o –AOB.
