Types of Angles
Type of Angles: Part Two
Congruency
100

Three equal sides. Three equal angles, always 60°

Equilateral Triangle

100

Extends in both directions without end (infinitely).

Line(s)

100

An internal angle which is equal to 90°

Right Angle

100

_________ Angles have the same angle. That is all. The term comes from Latin congruere, "to agree". So the angles "agree".

Congruent angles

100

Shapes that have the same size, area, angles and line lengths are known as...

Congruent

200

All angles are less than 90°

Acute Triangle

200

When a line does have ends it is called...

A line segment

200

More than 90° but less than 180°

Obtuse Angle

200

These two angles (140° and 40°) are ___________ angles, because they add up to 180°

Supplementary

200

If two figures have the same shape, but are different sizes, then they are...

Similar

300

Two equal sides. Two equal angles.

Isosceles Triangle

300

When a line has just one end it is called...

A ray

300

Sometimes people say "You did a complete 180 on that!" ... meaning you completely changed your mind, idea or direction. What type of angle is this a reference to?

A straight angle

300

These two angles (40° and 50°) are __________ angles, because they add up to 90°

Complementary

300

_____________ means that we have two triangles with all three sides equal, and are therefore congruent.

SSS or "side, side, side"

400

Has an angle more than 90°

Obtuse Triangle

400

Always the same distance apart and will never meet.

Parallel Lines

400

This type of angle is more than 180° but less than 360°

A reflex angle

400

Two angles are __________ when they have a common side and a common vertex (corner point) and don't overlap.

Adjacent

400

______________ means that we have two triangles where we know two sides and the included angle are equal, therefore making the triangles congruent.

SAS or "side, angle, side"

500

No equal sides. No equal angles.

Scalene Triangle

500

Lines that are at right angles (90°) to each other.

Perpendicular Lines

500

A full rotation is _____ degrees

360°

500

A ___________ is a line that crosses at least two other lines.

Transversal

500

___________ means that we have two triangles where we know two angles and the included side are equal.

ASA or "angle, side, angle"
