Angle the union of two rays with a common endpoint. The endpoint is
called the vertex and each ray is a side of the angle.

Postulate Angle Protractor Postulate

Let O be a point on AB such that O is between A and B.

Consider OA, OB, and all the rays that can be drawn from O on one side of AB. These
rays can be paired with the real numbers from 0 to 180 in such a way that:

1. OA is paired with 0 and OB is paired with 180.

2. If OP is paired with x and OQ is paired with y, then the number paired with m<POQ is
|x - y|. This number is called the measure, or the degree measure, of <POQ.

Bisector of an angle: a ray that divides an angle into 2 adjacent angles that are equal in
measure.

The Angle Bisector Theorem

If BX is the bisector of ∠ABC, then:

m∠ABX =1/2m∠ABC and m∠XBC = 1/2m∠ABC.
