We believe that the best way to learn mathematics is by solving problems. Lots and lots of problems. In fact, we believe that the best way to learn mathematics is to ‘ry to solve problems that you don't know how to do, When you discover something on your own, you'll understand it much better ‘than If eomeone just tells Ito you. Most of the sections of this book begin with several problems. The solutions to these problems will be covered in the text, but try to solve the problems before reading the section. If you can't solve some of the problems, that's OK, because they will all be fully solved as you read the section. Even if you solve al of the problems, It's stil portant to read the section, both to make sure that your solution is correct, and also because you may find that the book's solution is simpler or easier to understand then your own, If you find that the problems are too easy, this means that you should try harder problems. Nobody leams very much by solving probleme that are too easy for them. Navigating This Book From any page in the book, you can click on the image of the book's cover in the top-left comer to view the table of contents. On large-sereen devices, you can also click anywhere on the left-side navigation bar to jump to the corresponding section of the book. You can use the left and right arrows at the top of the page to move to the previous or next chapter or section of the book. Most sections begin with all of the problems thet appear in the section, as explained in the “Learn by Solving Problems” subsection above. Clicking on the 4 Jump to Solution link will jump forward in the section to where that problem and its solution appear in the text Hovering over a paragraph will create a small j icon in the left margin. Clicking on that icon will pop up @ window with a permanent link to that paragraph. You can cut-and-paste this link into an email message or community post. Interactive Features ‘There are several interactive features built into the book. All online books are linked to the AoP'S community, so that students using the online book can discuss the book with other students. Click on the t Community icon next to a section or problem to view" all of the discussions about that section or problem. Click the V New Topic icon to start a new discussion topic about the section of problem, This book is also linked to Alcumus, Art of Problem Solving’s innovative online learning system. Clicking on the 9 Alournus link at ‘the top of a section takes you to Alcumus. This gives you the opportunity to work on additional practice problems that reinforce ‘the material in your current section of the book. (Not al sections are linked to Aleumus, so the icon may not appear at the top of some sections ) To leat more about Alcumus, click here. Explanat ‘Throughout the book, you will see various shaded boxes and icons. n of Icons Concept: This will be @ general problem-solving technique or strategy. These are the "keys" to | becoming a better problem solver! Important: This will be something important that you should lear. It might be a formule, a Zs solution technique, or a caution. Beware if you see this box! This will point out a common mistake or pitfall. oO Game: Remember, math s fun! This box will contain @ game to think about. Sidenote: This box will contain material which, although interesting, is not part of the main . material of the text. I's OK to skip over these boxes, but if you read them, you might eam something interesting! Bogus Solution: Just like the impossible cube shown to the left, there's something wrong with any y “solution” that appears in this box. Extrat This is an “Extra!” and might be a quote, some biographical or historical background, or v perhaps an interesting idea to think about. Exercises, Review Problems, and Challenge Problems ‘Most sections end with several Exereises. These will test your understanding of the material that was covered in the section that you just finished. You should try to solve all of the exercises. Exercises marked with e * are more difficult. Most chapters have a section containing Review Problems. These are problems which test your understanding of the material covered in the chapter. Your goal should be to solve most or all of the Review Problems for every chapter — if you're unable to do ‘this, it means that you haver't yet mastered the material, and you should probably go back and read the chapter again. All of the chapters end with a section containing Challenge Problems. These problems are generally more difficult than the other problems in the book, and will really test your mastery of the material. Some of them are very, very hard — the hardest ones are marked with 2 %. Don't necessarily expect to be able to solve all of the Challenge Problems on your first try ~ these are difficult problems even for experienced problem solvers. If you are able to solve a large number of Challenge Problems, then congratulations, you are on your way to becoming an expert problem solver! You can type your solution or notes for any Exercise, Review Problem, or Challenge Problem directly into the book. Your work will automatically be saved. You wort be able to view the solution to a problem until you type something in the solution box. Many problems come with one or more hints. You can view any available hint by clicking on the Hint link after the problem statement. You can then hide the hint by again clicking on the Hint link. Itis very important that you first try to solve the problem without peeking at the hints. Only after you've seriously thought about a problem and are stuck should you look at a hint, Also, for problems which have multiple hints, use the hints one at a time; don't go to the second hint until you've thought about the first The solutions to all of the Exercises, Review Problems, and Challenge Problems are built into the book. Clicking the Show Solution button will display the solution, but you won't be able to view the solution until you've made an attempt to solve the problem and typed something into the solution box. Once you've viewed the solution, you can add notes to the solution in a ‘separate box. You can also click the Reset button to clear your solution and notes and start fresh. Here are some very important things to keep in mind about the solutions: 1. Make sure that you make a serious attempt at the problem before looking at the solution. You should think herd about a problem before deciding to give up and look at the solution. Remember, once you view a solution, you car‘t change what ‘you typed for your solution. 2. After you solve 2 problem, it's usually a good idea to read the solution, even if you think you know how to solve the problem. Our solution might show you a quicker or more concise way to solve the problem, or it might have a completely different solution method that you might not have thought of. 4, If you have to look atthe solution in order to solve @ problem, make sure that you make a note of that problem, You can ‘then come back to the problem in a week or two to make sure that you are able to solve it on your own without resorting to ‘he solution Resources Here are some other good resources for you to further pursue your study of mathematics: 11 Art of Problem Solving has @ complete library of books (both print and online) specifically designed for avid math students: = The Introduction series: Prealgebra, Introduction to Algebra, Introduction to Counting & Probability, and Introduction to Number Theory, designed for students in grades 6-10. = The Intermediate series: Intermediate Algebra, Intermediate Counting & Probability, Precalculus, and Calculus, designed for students in grades 9-12. = The Problem Solving series: designed for students preparing for math competitions.

Please see ‘the Acknowledgements section of this book for more information. A Note to Teachers We believe that students learn best when they are challenged with hard problems that at first they may not know how to do. This is the motivating philosophy behind this book. Rather than first introducing new material and then giving students exercises, we present problems at the start of each section ‘that students should try o solve before the new material is presented. The goal isto get students to discover the nev material on ‘their ov. Often, complicated problems are broken into smaller parte, co that students can discover new techniques one piece at a time. Then the new material is formally presented in the text, and full solutions to each problem are explained, along with problem-solving strategies. We hope that teachers will find that many students will discover most of the material in this book on their own by working through the problems. Other students may leam better from a more traditional approach of first seeing the new material, then ‘working the problems. Teachers have the fiexibilty to use either approach when teaching from this book. The book is linear in coverage. Generally, students and teachers should progress straight through the book in order, without ping chapters. Sections denoted with @ % contain supplementary material that may be safely skipped. In general, chapters are not equal in length, so different chapters may take different amounts of classroom time.Acknowledgements Contests We would like to thank the following contests for allowing us to use a selection of their problems in this book: 1 The American Mathematics Competitions, = series of contests for U.S. middle and high school students. The AMC 8, AMC 10, and AMC 12 contests are multiple-choice tests that are taken by over 350,000 students every year. Top scorers on the AMC 10 and AMC 12 ate invited to take the American Invitational Mathematics Examination (AIME), which is a more difficult, shortanswer contest. Approximately 10,000 students every year participate in the AIME. Then, based on the results of the AMC and AIME contests, about 500 students are invited to participate in the USA Junior Mathematical Olympiad (USAJMO) and USA Mathematical Olympiad (USAMO), 2-day, S-hour examinations in which each student must show all of his or her work. Results from the USA)MO are used to invite students to the Math Olympiad Summer Program, at which the U.S. team for the International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO) Is trained. More information about the AMC contests can be found on the AMC website at http: //smis.maa.org/math-compet it ions. + MATHCOUNTS®, the premier contest for U.S. middle school students. MATHCOUNTS is @ national enrichment, coaching, and competition program that promotes middle school mathematics achievement through grassroots involvement in every US. state and territory, with over 160,000 students participating in 2013-14. President Barack Obama, and former Presidents Bush, Clinton, Bush and Reagan have all recognized MATHCOUNTS in White House ceremonies. The MATHCOUNTS program has also received two White House citations as an outstanding private sector initiative.

The aim of the Mandelbrot Competition Is to provide a challenging, engaging mathematical experience which is both competitive and educational. Students compete both as individuals and in teams. The Mandelbrot Competition is offered at the national level for more advanced students and the regional level for less experienced problem solvers. The Mandelbrot Competition is currently on hiatus until 2017, More information can be found at ntcp:// www mandelbrot.org. = The Harvard-MIT Mathematics Tournament (HMMT), which is a twice-annual math tournament for high school students, held at MIT and Harvard. itis run exclusively by MIT and Harvard students, most of whom themselves participated in math contests in high school.

The USAMTS is a free mathematics competition open to all United States middle and high school students. As opposed to most mathematics competitions, the USAMTS allows students a full month to work out their solutions. Carefully written justifications are required for each problem, More information is available at http: / wu. usants.ore, + The American Regions Math League (ARML), which was founded in 1976, The annual ARMIL competition brings together neatly 2,000 of the nation’s finest students. They meet, compete against, and socialize with one another, forming friendships and sharpening their methematical skills. The contest is written for high school students, although some ‘exceptional junior high students attend each year. The competition consists of several events, which include a team round, a power question (in which a team solves proof-oriented questions), an individual round, and two relay rounds.

Some of the Sidebar and Extra sections were prepared by Ashley Reiter Anlin. Vanessa Rusczyk, and Naoki Sato. The solutions were written by Ruozhou Jia, Brian Rice, Richard Rusczyk, and Naoki Sato. Extensive proofreading of the manuscript was done by Mathew Crawford, Lisa Davis, Amanda Jones, David Patrick, Tim Lambert, Naoki Sato, and Jake Wildstrom. Vanessa Rusczyk designed the cover and also contributed greatly to the interior design of the book. David Patrick, Naoki Sato, Revi Boppana, Meena Boppana, Velentin Vomnicu, Greg Brockman, Larry Evans, and Joseph Laurendi contributed problems and proofreading to the second edition. The author would also like to thank Josh Zucker, whose comments about how he learned mathematics inspired the questions- before-the-lessons approach of the text ‘The print version of this book was written using the LaTeX document processing system, and the diagrams were prepared using ‘Metapost and Asymptote. We thank the authors of the various LaTeX packages that we used while preparing this book, and also the brilliant authors of The LaTeX Companion for writing a reference book that is not only thorough but also very readable. The source files for the print book were intially converted to this online book using a script written in the Python programming language. Palmer Mebane managed the conversion of this book from print to online, and Paul Salemo also wrote tools used in the conversion. Jason Batterson and the Jacob Tyler Creative Group designed the look and feel of this online book. James Fung, Shelley Garg, Kyle Guillet, Tasha Moyer, David Patrick, Shannon Rogers, Amy Szezepanski, Deven Ware, Phyllis Xu, and Laura Zehender all helped to review and edit the online book content.

Each of these images helps tell a story. Throughout this book we'll share these stories with you, but before we tell these stories, ‘we have to name our characters, 1.1 Why Names and Symbols? To convince you that names and symbols are useful, welll start at the end of the book instead of the beginning, Here's the final ‘example problem in this book, written without any special symbols or names. Draw three points and connect each to the other two with straight paths. Also, draw the circle that passes through all three of these points. Then, draw a line through one of those three points such that the line goes inside the region you just formed and is equally close to the two other straight paths you formed initially through this point. Draw the circle that goes through the one of your three first points you Just drew a line through, through the point where this line hits the straight path that connects the other two of your frst three points, and through the point that is half-way between these two other points. Consider the two paths from the point we drew the extra line through to the other two of our first three points. These paths hit our second circle before they hit these other two points. Show that the distance from where the circle hits ‘these paths to the points where these paths end Is the same for both paths. if you can make much sense of this problem, youre a much more careful reader than J am! We need some special names and symbols $0 we can communicate mathematical ideas more simply.1.2 Points, Lines, and Planes » Figure 1.1: 4 Point Adot. A speck. In geometry, it's a point. If you lived on a point, you'd be awfully bored. There would be no up and down, no right and left. You couldr’t move any amount in any direction. Since you can't move on your point in any direction, we say a point has O dimensions. In order to tell one point from another, ve usually label them with capital letiers, such as point P above. A b Figure 1.2: 4 Segment Now, say you got so bored on one point thet you just hed to go to another point. If there were a straight path from ane paint to another, that path would be called 2 line segment, or just a segment. The two points at the ends of a segment are cleverly called ‘the endpoints of the segment. We use these endpoints to label the segment. For example, AB Is the segment from Ato B. To denote the length of the segment, we omit the bar. For example, AB equals 1.5 inches in Figure 1.2. a \ Figure 1.3: A Midpoint and Marking Segments of Equal Length The endpoints aren't the only points on a segment. There are infinitely many points, since between any two points on the ‘segment, we can find another point. One special point on a segment is the seament’s midpoint, which Is the point halfway between the endpoints. Because the midpoint is the same distance from both endpoints, we say it is equidistant from the endpoints. In Figure 1.3, M] is the midpoint of XY. We show that XM = MY in the diagrem with the little tick marks along XM and TTY. If we have multiple sets of equally long segments, we use a different number of tick marks for each. For example, our diagram above indicates that ZX = W'Y, and that these lenaths need not be the same as X Mand MY. Figure 1.4: 4 Ray If you're not nappy just going from A to B, you can keep going past point BB. If you keep going forever, you will make a ray. We refer to the ray in Figure 1.4 a3 AB where the starting point. or erigin, of the ray comes first. In the diagram, the litle arrow indicates thatthe ray continues forever in tht crection. Figure 1.5: Line [As you might guess, we could continue forever in both directions. The result is a line. Line 1B} is shown in Figure 1.5. We sometimes use a lowercase letter 1o deseribe a line, such ac line in the figure. We often leave off the little arrows in the diagrams. Figure 7.6: Three Collinear Points Figure 1.7: Three Concurrent Lines If three or more points ere all on the same line, we sey the points are collinear, and if three or more ‘same point, we say the lines are concurrent. es all pass through the Segments, rays, and lines are all one-dimensional figures, since you have only one way you can move along them. Roughly speaking, eny path you cen draw with @ pencil is one-dimensional, meaning you can either move ‘forward’ on the path or ‘packward’ on the path. Once we have the freedom to go off our path and move around on a surface, we're up to two dimensions. On a surface like this page, we might call our dimensions leftsight and up-down. if the page extended forever in every direction, weld call ita plane, Most of this book discusses planar figures, which are figures that exist in planes. However, in Chapter 14, we wander off the page and add a third dimension you might think of as ‘above-below’ The physical space we live inis effectively three-dimensional, and most of what we experience is three-dimensional Although it’s much harder to think about, there's @ great deal of math in higher dimensions. But that's story for another day. Exer es gs wv Alice is thinking of a line. How many points on that line does she need to show Bob in order for Bob to know exactly which line she is thinking about?

(©) Isitpossible to draw a line that hits the circle in exactly one point? (©) Two points? (@)_ Three or more points? We have many fancy names for things in mathematics. The fancy name we have for a group of points that satisfy certain conditions is a locus, While you may never have heard of that word, you've certainly heard of the first locus we'll investigate. (And it's no big deal if you forget the word ‘locus’ until Intermediate Geometry!) mre tv Mark a point on a piece of a paper and label it O. Use a ruler to find points o Ifyou draw all of these points, what figure would yo Solution for Problem 1.1: When we draw all the points thet are 1 inch away from O, we form a figure called a circle. The point ( is called the center of the circle. We often refer to a circle by its center, writing ‘circle O' or 'O, where the © symbol tells us that weve dealing with a circle. We say that OA is a radius of the circle because it is a segment connecting ‘the center to a point on the circle, We know that all points on the circle must be 1 inch from ‘the center, so OA = Linch. The term ‘radius’ is also used to mean the length of a radius, ‘so we could write: ‘The radius of ®Qis 1 inch’ You'll notice that we dict use a big dot to mark point A. When there's a label near where ‘two figures meet, the label refers to the point where they meet. Therefore, A Is the point where our radius hits the circle. > ‘Much of our work in this book involves both lines and circles, ecu my Corry Solution for Problem 1.2: Given ©X, we can clearly find ¢ line that doesn't hit X anywhere. Line k shown below is such a line Imagine sliding line closer and closer to ©.X until it touches the circle at exactly one point, such as line £ touches ©.X at point P. We say that line fis a tangent line to the circle. We can also use ‘tangent’ as an adjective, and write, ‘Line €is tangent to @X." v en es La Lines even closer to the center intersect the elrle at two pointe, uch ao NTN does. A line that hite @ o'rele at two points Is a secant line. A segment that connects two points on a circle is a chord. ZIV is a chord, while MN is a secant line. A chord that passes through the center of a circle is @ diameter. Finally, the portion of a circle that connects two points on a citcle is called an are of that circle. Of course, we have @ symbol for —~ ‘that too: [MN is the shorter of the two arcs that connect IM and V.

Construction problems ask us to create precise geometric diagrams with two simple tools, These tools are a compass, to make circles, and a straightedge, to make straight line segments. Notice that we dor't say ‘ruler’ to make line segments. You don't get to use your straightedge to measure lengths of seaments — you can only draw lines. Similarly, you aren't allowed to use your protractor to measure or create angles So, what can you do? That's the goal of these construction sections: to start learning what you can do with only compacs and straightedge. The only operations you can perform with your compass and straightedge are the following: 1. Given a point, you can draw any line through the point. 2. Given two points, you can draw the line that passes through them both. 3. Given a point, you can draw any circle centered at that point. 4, Given a point and a segment, you can draw the circle with its center at that point and with radius equal in length to the length of the segment. 5. Given two points, you can draw the circle through one point such that the other point is the center of the circle. That's not much, but with these simple operations we can construct an enormous range of diagrams. Problems Problem 1.3, 4 Jump to Solution Use your compass to find a point Y on k such that AB = XY. You cannot sit ‘measurement to find 1 ply use a ruler to measure 173, then use that Problem 1.4 4 Jump to Solution ‘Shown below are segments AB and MN. (a) Use straightedge and compass to construct a line segment that has length AB + MN. (Reminder: You can't just measure with a ruler!!) (b) Construct a line segment that has length AB — MN. (Even though we don't say ‘with a straightedge and compass’ you still can’t measure with a ruler! ‘Construct’ implies ‘straightedge and compass’ construction.) We start our exploration of construction by learning how to copy a segment ecu a ee neem Le Lee ruler to measure 4/3, then use that measurement to find Y'1 Solution for Problem 1.3: All we can do with a compass is draw circles or parts of circles. To ‘ind 2 point that is AB from X, we first open our compass to a width of AB by putting the ae point of the compass at A and the compass pencil at 2 (or vice versa). Then we make a circle with center X and this opening as the radius. Since this ©X has a radius equalto AB, ~—~_x ‘the two points where it hits k are AB away from X. We can take either one of these as our \ LY point Yc Concept: In nearly all construction problems in which we must make a point, we find that point | by constructing two figures that the point must be on. The point we seek is then at the intersection of these two figures. For example, in Problem 1.3, we have line k and construct ©X that ¥ must be on. Their intersection gives us the point ¥ we seek. Let's try slightly more challenging construction. Eee a Solution for Problem 1.4: We start by drawing a line k and choosing a point P on line k. We find a point that is AB + MN from P in two steps, First, we find a point a distance of AB from P using our construction technique in Problem 1.3. We do so by ‘opening our compass to width AB and using this radius to draw a circle centered at P. We take one of the points where this circle hits k to be point Q ‘Then we find a point that is A/V from (by opening our compass to width MN’ and using this radius to dravr a circle centered at. As shown, this circle hits i ot two points, H and R’. To get to point H from P., we go 2 distonce of AB to get to @ then MN more to reach R. Therefore, PR = AB + MN. Similarly, to getto R’ from P, we first go a distance equal to AB 10 cet 10 Q,then head back towards P a distance of MN to get to R'.So, PR! = AB — MN.o You might have noticed that we did't need the entire circles we drew in our constructions. We only needed enough of the circle to tell where the circle would hit ‘the line. Typically, these ite arcs are all we draw in our constructions. Therefore, our paper wen constructing AI2 — MN in Problem 1.4 might look as shown at right.

In fact, it seems so obvious that it should be easy to prove. However, it isnt just hard to prove — it's impossiole. The statement that any two points can be connected by a straight line segment must be simply accepted as a fact, We call such a statement that must be regarded as fact without proof an axiom, Axioms are also sometimes called postulates, When the world’s most famous geometer, Euclid, wrote his famous Elements, he stated five axioms: |. Any two points can be connected by a straight line segment. 2. Any line segment can be extended forever in both directions, forming a lin. 3. Given any line segment, we can draw a circle with the segment as a radius and one of the segment’s endpoints as center. 4. Allright angles are congruent. (Well talk about right angles and what we mean by ‘congruent’ shortly!) 5. Given any straight line and a point not on the line, there is exactly one straight line that passes through the point and never meats the first line, In Euclid’s Elements, he combined these axioms to prove ever more complicated mathematical statements, We call such proven mathematical stetements theorems. A mathematical statement that is not an axiom but hasrit been proved false or true is called a conjecture. In this book, we dor't start from Euclid’s axioms and prove everything that follows step-by-step. I's a good thing, too! It turns out that even Euclid missed a few axioms. Mathematicians since have shown that Euclia’s arguments, in order to be completely valid ‘would need many more axioms added to these five. In other words, there are some things that even the great Euclid didn't realize are so ‘obvious’ that they could not be proved. Often when we reach these items in this text we give a ‘common sense! ‘explanation of why we accent these statements as facts. We note when these really are axioms, a3 opposed to statements that \we can prove using previous axioms or theorems. You can use the proofs we present both as guides for writing your own proofs and as stepping stones to prove interesting theorems of your own1.6 Summary Definitions: = Appoint je, well, a point. Euclid called a point ‘that which has no part! We can't do much better than that vague description. We typically denote points with capital letters. = A straight path connecting two points is called 2 segment, and our original two points are the endpoints of the segment. We refer to a segment by Its endpoints, such as AB. We remove the bar to denote the length of the segment: AB. Definitions: 1 The point on a segment that is halfway between the endpoints is the midpoint of the segment. We also say that this point is equidistant from the endpoints. = If we start at a point, then head in one direction forever, we form a ray. Our starting ere reeeeer rant teeter et en ite at ee eter the vertex of he ry. + If we continue a line segment pastts endpoints forever in both crection, we form a line, which we write as ‘1B. 1 If this page were continued forever in every direction, the result would be a plane. Since we can move in two general ditections, such as rightleft and up-down, on a plane, we say the plane has two dimensions. = If we adda third dimension, we are in three-dimensional space. ‘The set of all points th iat satisfy specific conditions is called a locus, Definitions: 1 The set of all points that are the same distance from a given point is @ circle. The given point is the center of the circle, and the fixed distance is the radius. We often refer to a circle by its center using the symbol ©, 60 OO refers to a circle centered ato. 1 Aline that touches @ circle at a single pointis tangent to the circle, while a line that hits a circle ot two points is a secant line. A segment connecting two points on a circle is @ chord, and 2 chord thet passes through the center of its circle is a diameter. The portion of a circle that connects two points on the circle is an are, —~ which we denote with the endpoints of the arc: MN Is the shorter are that connects M and N. When performing constructions with a straightedge and compass, you can only draw line segments and circular ares. You cannot use a ruler to measure ‘segments. The operations you can perform are: 1. Given a point, you can draw any line through the point 2. Given two points, you can draw the line that passes through them both. 3. Given a point, you can draw any circle centered at that point. 4, Given a point and a segment, you can craw the circle with its center at that point and with radius equal in length to the length of the segment. 5. Given two points, you can draw the circle through one point such that the other point is the center of the circle. Extral Vv ‘At the top of the first page of each chapter in this book is an image illustrating an interesting geometric fact. The image at the start of this chapter is of the Golden Ratio Spiral. A Golden Ratio Spiral is inside @ golden reetangle, which is a rectangle that can be divided into a square and another rectangle such that the ratio between the dimensions of the new rectangle equals that of the original rectangle. a 1 as a 1 1 7 care Shown above is gokien rectangle ABCD with dimensions 1 and «. PG divides the reetangle into 2 square of side 1 and a rectangle with dimensions « — 1 and 1.

When we divide @ golden rectangle into a square and a rectangle, the ratio of the dimensions of the ‘smaller rectangle Is the same as that of the original rectangle. Therefore, the smaller rectangle is. @ golden rectangle too, so we can spit it into 2 square and another smaller golden rectangle We can do this over and over indefinitely forming the figure shown below. LA All of the squares in the diagram together make up our largest golden rectangle. When we omit the largest square, we get our next golden rectangle. Then we omit the next largest square to find the next golden rectangle, and so on. If we then draw @ quarter-circle in each of the squares, as shown above, we get the Golden Ratio SpiralThe Lighthouse Theorem, Ware going totum ts team arouna 360 degrees. — Jason Kise CHAPTER 2 1 Popes 2.1 What is an Angle? When two rays share an origin, they form an angle. In the diagram at left, rays OX and OY chare origin O. We can refer to the angle they form ae ZXOY. The Z symbol tells us wee refering to an angle. The common origin is called the vertex of <> the angle, and the rays OX and OF are called the sides of the angle. Notice that when we write the tangle as ZX OY, we put the vertex in the middle, We could elso refer tothe angle as ZY'O X, but not ae ZXYO. When Its very clear what angle we'e talking about, we can just name it withthe vertex: £0. Of course, two intersecting lines also make angles. Lines 4B and OD at right intersect at P. Here, we car't just write ZP, since there are many & different possible angles this could mean, such as “APC, ZAPD, ZDPB, or ZBPC. We might even be referring to ZAPB. Now that we know whet angles are, we need a way to measure them so we can compare one < angle to another.2.2 Measuring Angles Figure 2.1: A Protractor Just as we use 2 ruler to measure the lengths of segments, we can use a protractor to measure angles. Roughly specking, an angle's measure is how ‘open’ the angle is. Our protractor above shows half a circle (which we call a semicircle) divided into 180, equal pieces. Each of these little pieces is considered one degree of the semicircle, so that an entire circle is 360 degrees. We use the symbol °to denote degrees, so that @ whole circle is 360° We use a protractor to measure the number of degrees of a circle between the two sides of an angle whose vertex is the center of the circle, For example, in Figure 2.1, the vertex of ZYOZ is placed at the center of the semicircle. There are 62 degrees between sides OZ and OF of Z¥OZ, s0 we say that ZYOZ = 62°. Sometimes angles are written with an m before Z to indicate measure: mZYOZ = 62°. Problems Problem 2.1 4 Jump to Solution Use your protractor to find 2VOZ, ZOX D, DX Band ZOX E Problem 2.2 4.Jump to Solution The diagram below shows four common angles. In each case, point O is the center of the circle. ZAOB cuts off 1/4 of a circle, COD cuts off 1/3 of a circle, ZEOF cuts off 1/12 of a circle, and ZGOH cuts off 1/8 of a circle. (a) What is the measure in degrees of ZAOB? (b) What is the measure in degrees of COD? (©) What is the measure in degrees of EOF? (d)_ What is the measure in degrees of “GOH? (@) What's so special about 360; why do we use 360 for the number of degrees in a whole circle? Do not use a protractor; use what you are told about the angles in the text. Problem 2.3 4.Jump to Solution Given that ZWOY = 60" and ZWOX = 20° below, find ZXOY Problem 2.4 4.Jump to Solution ‘Suppose instead of measuring an angle the ‘regular’ way, we go the ‘long’ way around, as shown in the diagram. The ‘regular’ angle PQR. has measure 40°. What is the measure of the ‘long’ way around angle? Problem 2.5 4 Jump to Solution Use your protractor to create a 37° angle and a 143° angle. Eeues U Pes Solution for Problem 2.1: The protractor itsetf is half a circle (which we call a semicitele): we use it to measure the number of degrees of a circle the angle cuts off. Here are the steps we follow to use our protractor to measure angles: 1. Place the protractor on the angle so that the vertex of the angle is exactly where the center of the circle would be if the protractor were @ whole circle. Your protractor should clearly show this center point: i's near the middle of the straight side. 2. Turn the protractor so that one side of the angle is along the ‘zero lin’; ie, the line through the center point along the straight edge of the protractor. 3. Find where the other side ofthe angle meets the curved side of the protractor. The number there tells you the measure of the angle For ZYOZ, we put our protractor on the page as shown below. We line up side OZ of the angle with the zero line of the protractor placing the center point of the protractor over O. We find that side OY hits the curved edge at 90° When we follow this procedure with ZC.X D, we find that there are two numbers where XD meets the curved edge in the a following diagram, We know to take the smaller of these numbers ~ clearly there are 40 degrees, not 140 degrees, between and XD. We can also note that ZX Dis less than half the entire semicircle, so its measure must be the smaller of the two numbers where XD meets the curved edge of the protractor. We can also use the above diagram to find the measure of ZC-X E. Once again, our angle hits a point on the curved edge with ‘two numbers, but this time we know the angle is oteater than 90° (since the angle is more than half the semicircle). Thus, we know that 2CXE = 115°. Finally, we can place the protractor as in the diagram below to find that DX B= 75°. Notice that CCXD + ZDXE = £CXE. this isn't an accident! Since CX D and ZDX E share a side and a vertex, putting them together gives ZCOX E. We sau in Problem 2.1 that knowing whether an angle is greater then or less than 90 is necessary for finding its measure using a protractor. This 90° is such an important measure that angles that are 90° have a special name, right angles. We usually mark right angles with a little box as shown in ZJKL at right. Tw lines, rays, or line segments that form a right angle are seid to be perpendicular. JK and KL. are perpendicular; we can use the symbol to write this briefly TR | KT. An , yey Angles that are less than 90° ate called acute, and those that are greater than 90° but less than 180° are called obtuse ‘Sometimes we write the measure of an angle inside the angle as shown above.

If two lines do not meet, we say that they are parallel. f lines “1B and &D are parallel, we write AB || GD. Figure 2.2: Two Sets of Parallel Lines Just as we use little ares to mark angles that are equal, we can use litle arrows to mark lines that are parallel, In the diagram above, lines j,k, and & are marked parallel, as ere lines m and n. You won't see us use this notation all the time, though. Those litle arrows can really clutter up a diagram, Problems Problem 2.10 4 Jump to Solution Draw a pair of parallel lines like those shown below. Then draw a line that crosses both of the parallel ines. Measure all the angles formed between your line and both of the parallel ines. Write the angle measures in the angles you form. Try it again with 2 different crossing line. Do you notice anything interesting? Problem 2.11 4 Jump to Solution Lines m and n are parallel, and we are given the measure of one angle in the diagram as shown. Find the values of a,b, ¢,w, ty, and z Problem 2.12 4 Jump to Solution Inthe figue, we have AB {| OD ana AB || BC. we are aleo given the measures of four angles as shown in terme of and Find x and y 4 Jump to Solution 7 in the diagram, find 2: Problem 2.14 Inthe diagram, £ || mand the angles are as marked. Find 2. Back in Section 1.5 here, we noted that one of our axioms (statements we must accept without proof) is Given any straight line and point not on the line, there Is exactly one straight line that passes through the point and never meets the frst line, ‘This common-sense statement is sometimes called the Parallel Postulate. We'll start our exploration of parallel lines by taking a look at the angles formed when a line intersects a pair of parallel lines. Peneerer) See) Cee Dee eRe ee ee Ly Solution for Problem 2.10: In the diagram to the right, we have parallel lines & and mm, and we have added line n, which meets € and m at A and B, respectively. We call a line that cuts across parallel lines a transversal. We measure ZAG and find that it equals 40°, Since ZH AG and ZC AB are vertical angles, we don't even have to measure ZC AB. We know that ZCAB = ZHAG = 40°. Since ZHAG and ZBAG together make up a straight angle, we dorit have to measure BAG. We know that ZBAG = 180° — LHAG = 180° — 40° = 140°. Similarly, ZAC = 140°. We might wonder if we need our protractor at all, but then we think about those angles around 3. They sure look equal to those around A and common sense tells us that they are, but we measure to make sure. We find that indeed ZABF = 40°, from which we deduce that DBE = 40° as well. We can also quickly determine that, ZABD = 180° — ZABF = 140° and ZEBF = 140°, Seeing that ZHAG = ZABF, we wonder if its always true that a transversal will cut parallel lines at equal angles like ZHAG and Z ABP. Like the Parallel Postulate, this turns out to be one of those ‘obvious’ facts that cannot be proved. It must be assumed. As we have seen while finding the angles above, once we know that these two are equal, we can quickly use lines and vertical angles to find the rest of the angles. N a 6 ae es - = \ Figure 2.3: Angles Between a Transversal and Two Parallel Lines ‘Thus, we see that when two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, we have two groups of four equal angles. Specifically, in Figure 2.8, we have Furthermore, the angles in the frst group are supplementary to those in the second. Pairs of these angles have special names to describe their relationships. These names are not terribly important, but you'll see ‘them elsewhere, and € are corresponding angles. dand f te alternate interior angles and g are alternate exterior angles. cand f ate same-side interior angles. band g are same-side exterior angles. Again, the names are not such a big deal. After doing enough geometry, youll probably know them anyway Don't bother ‘memorizing them now. Just understand which angles are equal and which are supplementary. = eee) ‘Solution for Problem 2.11: We know that when a transversal cuts parallel lines, equal angles come in aroups of four as we saw In Problem 2.10. Therefore, we know that w = y = c = 113°. We also know that each angle in the other ‘group of four’ has a ‘measure that is supplementary to 113° a= b= 180° ~ 113° = 67° Now that we understand the relationships between angles when a parallel line is cut by a transversal, let's try a more challenging problem. Problem 2.12 [repr een Pear ery ees Solution for Problem 2.12: There's no obvious way to make an equation for x or y, so we start off by using our parallel lines and vertical angles to write the measures of all the angles we know in terms of z and y. fe feo “4 G By+18 ay-15 3yt 18 LY NR ERE SS SE ps (ae Z YP After labeling the angles we know in terms of «and y, we look for ways to bulld equations. We can use angles that togetner form straight angles at A and B ZBAN + ZBAB = (3y + 15°) + (3x — 15°) = 180° ZLFBA+ZFBG + ZGBH = (8y + 15°) ++ y = 180° Rearranging these gives arty = 60° c+dy = 165° ‘Subtracting the first from the second gives us 3y = 105°, co. = 35°. We can then use substitution to find ar = 25°, Of course, wwe didnt have to label every angle above ~ we could have stopped when we had enough information to set up @ pair of equations to solve for arand y. Note that we could have used parallel line relationships to set up the equations, too Since AB || OD, we have ZDAN=ZKDM, 90 32—15°=c+y Also, ZHBC and ZBCI are supplementary, 60 (3y + 15°) + (Bx — 15°) = 180" solving these two equations gives us the same answer as before. (itbetter) c Concept: Solving a problem with two different methods is an excellent way to check your | answer. Well finish with two more challenging problems that illustrate how useful parallel lines can be when seeking angle measures. uae COAL Solution for Problem 2.13: We start by using what we know about parallel lines to find as many angles as we can. We find ZV = 180° — 140° = 40° since WZ || VY. Similarly, 2Z = 40°, and ZZYV = 180° — 27 = 140 Since ZPYV = 32, we have LPYZ = LVYZ ~ LPYV = 140" ~ 80. Since this angle, the 90° angle, and the angle with mecsure « together give us straight line PP. we have ZPYE + 90 + 2 = 180". We then substitute ZPY Z = 140° — 3: into this equation, and we have 140° — 3x +.90° + x = 180°. We solve this equation for ato find that ar = 25°. 0 Using information about angles to find information about other angles is often called angle-ehasing. We've already learned three important tools in angle-chasing: straight angles, vertical angles, and parallel ines. Stay tuned, Welll see plenty more! Concept: Often when we're angle-chasing, our goal is to build an equation to solve for one of | the variables in our problem ee Sc Lea Solution for Problem 2.14: We need to relate our desired angle to angles we know, but neither for A AB nor BC cuts both parallel lines. However, if we add a line k'through B parallel to€ and, <——
