Complementary angles
Segment AC has a midpoint of point B
If AB = 6 then AC = ______
AC = 12
An angle greater than 90°
Obtuse angle
Find the complement of 29 degrees
61 degrees
Segment PQ has a midpoint of point M
If PM = 6 and MQ = 4x - 2
What does x = _____
x = 2
This angle measures 180°
Straight angle
The sum of two angles that equal 180 degrees
Supplementary angles
M is the midpoint of PQ.
PM = 6x + 7 and MQ = 9x –8,
find the length of PQ.
Solving for x, x = 5
therefore PM = 6x + 7 = 6(5) + 7 = 37
and PQ = PM + MQ = 37 + 37 = 74
An angle of one complete turn which equals 360 degrees.
Full angle
