Angles and Triangles

Angles
 A shape formed by two rays sharing a
common endpoint; contains two rays
and a vertex
vertex—point common to two
rays of a triangle or two sides
of a polygon
ray

ray—has one endpoint and


goes infinitely in one direction

This is a ray. It only


goes in one direction.
Types of Triangles
 Equilateral triangle: A triangle with
three congruent (equal) sides and
three equal angles

These marks indicate equality.


Types of Triangles
 Isosceles triangle: A triangle with
at least two congruent (equal) sides
Types of Triangles
 Right triangle: Has only one right
angle (90 degrees)

This box indicates a right


angle or a 90-degree angle.

has no congruent (equal) sides

Interior Angles
 Interior angles: An interior angle
(or internal angle) is an angle
formed by two sides of a simple
polygon that share an endpoint

 Interior angles of a triangle always


equal 180 degrees.
Measuring Angles
 You measure angles with a protractor.
Notice there are two scales. Be careful which 0 you start at.
