Module 5 Angles Review

Front

What is an angle?

Back

An angle is formed by two rays (sides) that share a common endpoint (vertex).

Front

What is the vertex of an angle?

Back

The vertex is the point where the two rays of an angle meet.

Front

What is a protractor used for?

Back

A protractor is a tool used to measure angles in degrees.

Front

What is the measure of a right angle?

Back

A right angle measures 90 degrees.

Front

What is an acute angle?

Back

An acute angle is an angle that measures less than 90 degrees.

Front

What is an obtuse angle?

Back

An obtuse angle is an angle that measures more than 90 degrees but less than 180 degrees.

Front

What is a straight angle?

Back

A straight angle measures exactly 180 degrees.

Front

How do you find the measure of a missing angle in a triangle?

Back

The sum of the angles in a triangle is always 180 degrees. Subtract the sum of the known angles from 180 to find the missing angle.

Front

What is the measurement of angle BCE if it is given as 60 degrees?

Back

Angle BCE measures 60 degrees.

Front

If one angle measures 100 degrees, what is the measurement of the other angle in a linear pair?

Back

The other angle measures 80 degrees because the angles in a linear pair sum to 180 degrees.
