complementary angles (two angles whose sum is 90°) and supplementary angles (two angles whose
sum is 180°. A straight line = 180°. In the figure below and to the left, angle EFH and angle HFG form a
straight line so they are supplementary angles. In the figure below and to the right, angle ABD and angle
DBC form a right angle to they are complementary.
Sample questions:
1. In the figure below, angle EFH is 120°, what is the measure of angle HFG?
2. In the figure below, angle ABC is a right angle. If the measure of angle ABD is 70°, what is the
measure of angle DBC?
3. Points E, F, and G are collinear. Point H is a point not on EG. If the measure of angle GFH is 64°,
then what is the measure of angle EFH? (Hint 1: collinear means they're on the same line. Hint

the same direction. They don't have to be on similar sized lines.

Intersecting lines:
When two lines intersect, adjacent angles are supplementary (they make a line and add up to 180 , and
vertical angles (angles across from each other) are equal.

Parallel lines , transversals, and corresponding angles:
A line that cuts through two parallel lines is called a transversal. The angles in matching corners are
called corresponding angles. In this figure angle a corresponds with angle e. Angle b corresponds with
angle f and so on. Corresponding angles are equal (congruent). And since vertical angles are equal, that
means that angles a, c, e, and g are all equal. Likewise angles b, d, f, and h are also equal. And since
angle a and angle b form a line, the sum of the angles is 180 .

Right triangles and complementary angles. In the triangle below angle A is a right angle. Since the sum
of the angles of a triangle is 180 and angle A is 90, the sum of angle B and angle C must be 90. That
means that angle B and C are complementary.
Perimeter and Area of quadrilaterals and other polygons
Perimeter. Perimeter is the outline of a physical area. From Latin, meaning “around” (peri)and
“measure” (metron), a perimeter is basically a boundary of any kind, measuring around the shape. In
mathematics, perimeter refers to the length of this boundary. You might be asked to calculate
the perimeter of a polygon, which is the sum of the length of each side.
Area of a rectangle. From Latin: area - "level ground, an open space,". The number of square units it
takes to completely fill a rectangle. Formula: Width × Height.
Area of a square. The same as for a rectangle, but the width and height are the same so you can also
say where s is a side of the square.
Area of a parallelogram. width X height or (Base X Height)
Area of a triangle. The formula for area of a triangle is of the base times the height.
