WHAT DO YOU CALL THE COMMON ENDPOINT OF THE TWO RAYS IN AN ANGLE
VERTEX!
DEFINITION OF OBTUSE ANGLE
GREATER THAN 90 BUT LESS THAN 180,
180 DEGREE ANGLE IS CALLED A STRAIGHT ANGLE.
WHAT DO YOU CALL IF AN ANGLE HAS A MEASUREMENT OF GREATER THAN 180 BUT LESS THAN 360
REFLEX ANGLE
ANGLE WITH 360 DEGREE
FULL ANGLE.
BESIDES RADIAN AND DEGREE, WHAT OTHER UNITS ARE THERE TO MEASURE ANGLES,
ANDDDDD
WHAT IS THEIR CONVERSION TO DEGREE.
1 DEGREE = ______????
GON/GRADIAN= ONE FULL CYCLE IS 400;
1 DEGREE = 1.1111GON
MIL= 1 FULL ROATION IS 6400 1DEGREE = 17.78 MILS
WHEN TWO ANGLES HAVE THE SAME MAGNITUDE, THEY ARE CONSIDERED?
CONGRUENT
WHEN TWO ANGLE THAT START AND END AT THE SAME POINT AND HAVE MAGNITUDES THAT DIFFER BY A MULTIPLE OF 360 DEGREES
COTERMINAL
Coterminal angles: are angles in standard position (angles with the initial side on the positive x-axis) that have a common terminal side. For example, the angles 30°, –330° and 390° are all coterminal
AN ACUTE ANGLE THAT CAN BE OBTAINED BY CONTINUALLY SUBTRACTING 180 DEGREE FROM A REFLEX ANGLE
REFERENCE ANGLE
COMPLEMENTARY ANGLE MEANS
2 ANGLE WHEN ADDED EQUALS 90
SUPPLEMENTARY ANGLE MEANS
2 ANGLES WHEN ADDED EQUALS 180
EXPLEMENTARY ANGLE MEANS
2 ANGLES WHEN ADDED EQUALS 360
what do you call a polygon where it’s sides are all equal in length, and what do you call its counterpart.
REGULAR, and IRREGULAR POLYGON
FORMULA FOR THE INTERIOR ANGLE & exterior angle OF A REGULAR POLYGON
Σ Interiorθ = (n-2) 180
Σ Exteriorθ = 360
Interiorθ = [(n-2) 180]/n
where n= the number of sides of the polygon
FORMULA FOR The number of diagonals in a POLYGON
Number of diagonals =n/2 (n-3)
FORMULA FOR The perimeter and area of a regular! POLYGON
Area= 1/4 na^2 cot(180/n) n= number of sides a= length of one side
perimeter= na
