An angle is a geometric figure formed by two rays or lines that extend from a common point, called the vertex.
There are several types of angles based on their measure and relationship with each other:
Angles are typically denoted using the symbol ∠ followed by three points, with the middle point representing the vertex. For example, ∠ABC represents an angle with vertex at point B.
Angles are measured in degrees, with a full rotation around a point measuring 360 degrees. Degrees can be further divided into minutes (') and seconds (").
When two lines intersect, they form pairs of angles with specific relationships:
There are several important properties and formulas related to angles, including:
There are various tools used to measure and draw angles, including protractors, angle rulers, and geometric software applications.
