Angles And Triangles : Basic Geometry- Part- I


Angle:
In geometry, an angle is the figure formed by two rays, called the sides of the angle, sharing a common endpoint, called the vertex of the angle.

Angle is also used to designate the measure of an angle or of a rotation. This measure is the ratio of the length of a circular arc by its radius. In the case of an angle (figure), the arc is centered at the vertex and delimited by the sides. In the case of a rotation, the arc is centered at the center of the rotation and delimited by any point and its image by the rotation.

Protractor:
In geometry, a protractor is a square, circular or semicircular tool, typically in transparent perspex, for measuring angles. The units of measurement utilized are usually degrees (°).

They are used for a variety of mechanical and engineering-related applications, but perhaps the most common use is in geometry lessons in schools.

Different Types of Angles:

Acute Angle
Acute Angle:                                                         
Angle which is smaller than right angle or 90 degrees   known as acute angle Example: angles from 1 degrees to 89 degrees

Right Angle

Right Angle:                                    
Angle which is equal to 90 degrees known as right angle Example: angles from 90 degrees.

Obtuse Angle

Obtuse Angle:                                                                                                                                     
Angle which is greater than 90 degrees but smaller than 180 degrees known as obtuse angle Example: angles from 91degrees to 179 degrees

Straight Angle

Straight Angle:                                        
Angle which is equal to 180 degrees known as straight angle Example: angle of 180 degrees


Reflex Angle
Reflex Angle: 
Angle which is greater than 180 degrees but smaller than 360 degrees ,known as reflex angle Example: angle from 180 degrees to 359 degrees

Complete Angle


Complete Angle:                                                                                                                                                                            
Angle which is equal to 360 degrees ,known as complete angle Example: angle of 360 degrees .

Triangles:
A triangle is one of the basic shapes of geometry: a polygon with three corners or vertices and three sides or edges which are line segments. A triangle with vertices A, B, and C is denoted \triangle ABC.

Equilateral Triangle

1) Equilateral Triangle
Triangle having  all three sides are equal in length.  

Isosceles Triangle

2) Isoscales Triangle
Triangle having  only two sides are equal in length.

Scalene Triangle

 3)Scalene Triangle
Triangle having  all sides are unequal in length.

  1. I think at the time math is very difficult subject, parents should help kids in solving math problems. and about 12 sided I want to share a simple definition as-12 sided polygon is called as dodecagon, This is one type of regular polygons, it may be regular or irregular. It’s a 12 sided closed figure.
