Angles & Triangles
Question | Answer |
---|---|
Angle | When two lines meet at a point (Vertex) |
Vertex | The point where the two arms of an angle meet |
Protractor | The device for measuring angles |
Degrees' | The unit used to measure angles |
Constructing Angles | Drawing an angle accurately with a protractor |
Acute Angle | An Acute angle is greater than zero', but less than 90' |
Right Angle | A Right Angle is exactly 90' |
Obtuse Angle | An Obtuse Angle is greater than 90' but less than 180' |
Straight Angle | A Straight Angle is exactly 180' |
Reflex Angle | A Reflex Angle is greater than180' but less than 360' |
A Revolution or Perigon | A Revolution or Perigon is an angle of 360' A full circle |
Complementary Angles | Complementary Angles are 2 or more angles that add up to 90' |
Supplementary Angles | Supplementary Angles are 2 or more angles that add up to 180' |
< symbol | The < symbol is saying "the angle of" |
Writing the angle name, we use < and _________ _________ letters | Three Capital letters |
The three angles in any Triangle added up to ________ | 180' |
The three triangle according to their sides are called | Equilateral, Isosceles and Scalene Triangles |
An Equilateral Triangle has | All sides equal in length All angles equal 60' |
An Isosceles Triangle has | Two sides of equal length Opposite angles are equal |
A Scalene Triangle has | No equal sides No equal angles |
The three Triangles according to their angles are called | Right- angled triangle, Acute- angled triangle and an Obtuse- angled triangle |
A Right -angled triangle | Has ONE angle that equals 90' |
An Acute-angled triangle | Has ALL angles smaller than 90' |
An Obtuse-angled triangle | Has ONE angle GREATER than 90' ( less than 180') |
Interior Angle refers to | Refers to the angles inside the triangle |
Exterior Angles refers to | Refers to the angle outside the triangle |
