Angles and Triangles
Module 5 – Lesson 2

Types of Angles

Types of angles

How to measure angles

The little square in the corner of the triangle is a symbol for a right angle that measures 90°
...

Now solve the equation
...



When you translate a figure, whether a line, angle, or object, every part of the figure moves in the same
direction for the same distance
...

In a translation, a new figure is shown with the same letters as the original, but you add an apostrophe (') after each
letter, which is read as "prime
...

 Triangle ABC is translated down and to the right
...

 If Polygon LMNOP is translated up and to the right, the new polygon would be called L'M'N'O'P', which is
read as L prime M prime N prime O prime P prime
...

The original figure is called the pre-image
...

Pre-image: The original figure prior to a transformation
...


The same letters are used for each with the "prime"
marks to remind you that they are related to one another
...




When two figures are exactly the same, they are called congruent
...




This means that their angles are also exactly the same and are also congruent
...




All lines, angles, and segments remain exactly the same, just placed in a new location
...


Reflections: A type of transformation in which one figure is a direct mirror image of another
...

Rigid transformation: Moving a figure so that it is in a new location but has the same size, shape, and area
...



Imagine a line halfway between you and your reflection
...


Line of reflection: The line over which a pre-image is reflected to create a new image
...
Each piece of the pre-

image is exactly the same in the image
...
The length of a line segment will be the same in a reflection
...
The angles of the image are congruent to the angles in the pre-image
...


Rotation: A transformation that turns a figure a given angle and direction around a fixed point
...


45°

90°

180°

270°

360°

Clockwise and Counterclockwise
Rotations can be either clockwise or counterclockwise in direction
...



Think of the middle of a clock
...




Often called the origin

Congruency
Module 5 – Lesson 7
Having the same size and shape; expressed with the symbol ≅




After a rigid transformation has been performed, the pre-image and the image are congruent
...


Rigid Transformation: Movement that changes the position of a figure but not its size; translations, reflections, and
rotations
...



Dilations are not rigid transformations because the size does not stay the same
...
Triangle HJK
has been shrunk to form Triangle H'J'K'
...


Scale factor: A ratio of two corresponding lengths that determines the change in size from a pre-image to an image
...




A scale factor that is less than 1 represents a decrease in the size of the pre-image
...

Set up a ratio with the image measurement on top and the pre-image measurement in the denominator
...

5 units/
10 units

 Simplify if possible
...




If a figure goes across the graph at a diagonal, don't try to estimate the lengths of the sides
...

Vertex A has coordinates (2, 1)
Vertex A' has coordinates (6, 3)

 Set up a ratio
...

Remember to put the image coordinate on top and pre-image on the
bottom
...


6/ = 6÷2/
3
2
2÷2 = /1 = 3

The scale factor for this dilation is 3
...




They have the same angle measurements and are the same size
...


Transversals and Angles
Module 5 – Lesson 9
Parallel Lines and Transversals
When two lines are crossed by a third line, the third
line is called a transversal
...




These corresponding angles are congruent
...


The corresponding angles are as follows:
m∠1 ≅ m∠5

m∠2 ≅ m∠6

m∠3 ≅ m∠7

m∠4 ≅ m∠8

Alternate interior angles lie on alternate (or
opposite) sides of the transversal and inside the
parallel lines
...
So are Angle 5 and Angle 4
...


Alternate exterior angles lie on alternate (or opposite)
sides of the transversal and outside the parallel lines



Angle 1 and Angle 8 are alternate exterior angles
...

When parallel lines are intersected by a transversal, alternate exterior angles are congruent
...
It shows parallel lines m and n intersected
by transversal t
...
The figure shows that one
of the obtuse angles measures 150 degrees
...


STEP 1
 Start by marking the angles that you know are congruent to
the 150-degree angle
...





Each of these angles will be congruent to 150 degrees
...


 Now think about the missing angle to the right of 150
...
Since these adjacent angles form a
straight line, they are supplementary—they add up to 180 degrees
...

 The missing angle next to 150 is 30 degrees
...
So you can say that

x + 20 = 78


Then, solve for x
...


Exterior Angles: Angles that are located outside the triangle are called exterior angles
...



There is a special relationship between an exterior angle and the two remote interior angles across from it
...


Exterior Angle Theorem:
The measure of an exterior angle is equal to the sum of the two remote interior
angles

Triangle Similarity
Corresponding Angles
Congruent angles: Angles with the same measure
...
But they can be different sizes
...


Matching the number of arcs will tell you which angles match up or correspond to one another
...

You can tell because they both have one arc marked
...



Angles that have the same measure in similar triangles are called congruent angles
...
If the angles are corresponding, they can

be in different positions but still have the same measure
...
There are several
ways to prove similarity, but a simple one is the angle-angle criterion
...

The triangles shown are similar
...

 The angle-angle criterion states that when two pairs of
angles are congruent, the triangles are similar
