1-3 Measuring and Constructing Angles
An angle is a formed by two rays, or sides, with a
common endpoint called the vertex (plural:
vertices).
You can name an angle several ways:
1. by its vertex (a single point)
2. by a point on each ray and the vertex (3 points)
3. by a number

Possible Angle Names:
R, SRT, TRS, or 1

1-3 Measuring and Constructing Angles
You can’t name an angle just by its vertex if there
is more than one angle with that vertex.
In this case, you must use all three points to
name the angle, and the middle point is always
the vertex.

The measure of an angle is usually given
in degrees. There are 360° in a circle.

Example 2: Measuring and Classifying Angles
Find the measure of each angle. Then classify
each as acute, right, or obtuse.
A. WXV
mWXV = 30°
WXV is acute.
B. ZXW
mZXW = 130° - 30° = 100°
ZXW = is obtuse.

1-3 Measuring and Constructing Angles
Congruent angles have the same measure.
mABC = mDEF, therefore ABC  DEF.
This is read as “ABC is congruent to DEF.”
Arc marks are used to show that the two s are .

Example 3: Using the Angle Addition Postulate
mDEG = 115°, and mDEF = 48°. Find mFEG
mDEG = mDEF + mFEG  Add. Post.
115 = 48 + mFEG
Substitute the given values.
–48° –48°
67 = mFEG
Holt Geometry
Subtract 48 from both sides.
Simplify.
1-3 Measuring and Constructing Angles
An angle bisector is a ray that divides an angle
into two congruent angles.
JK bisects LJM; thus LJK  KJM.

Example 4: Finding the Measure of an Angle
KM bisects JKL, mJKM = (4x + 6)°, and
mMKL = (7x – 12)°. Find mJKM.
(4x + 6)°
(7x – 12)°

Find the measure of each angle.
JK bisects LJM, mLJK = (-10x + 3)°, and
mKJM = (–x + 21)°. Find mLJM.
Step 1 Find x.
LJK = KJM
(–10x + 3)° = (–x + 21)°

–9x = 18
x = –2

Def. of  bisector
Substitute the given values.
Add x to both sides.
Simplify.
Subtract 3 from both sides.
Divide both sides by –9.
Simplify.
