There are several ways to label angles.

We can use a small case letter or a letter of the Greek alphabet.

We can also use three point notation to refer to an angle.

For example, the illustrated angle µ is angle PQR or PbQR.

1 Draw a freehand sketch of:

a an acute angle b an obtuse angle c a right angle

d a reflex angle e a straight angle

2 State whether the following angles are straight, acute, obtuse or reflex:

a b c d

e f g h

3 For the angle sizes given below, state whether the angle is:

i a revolution ii a straight angle iii a right angle

iv an acute angle v an obtuse angle vi a reflex angle.

Assumed Knowledge (Geometry and graphs) 3

When we talk about lines and line segments, it is important to state exactly what we mean.

Line AB is the endless straight line passing through the

points A and B.

Line segment AB is the part of the straight line AB that

connects A with B.

The distance AB is the length of the line segment AB.

There are several other important words we use when talking about lines:

² Concurrent lines are three or more lines

that all pass through a common point.

² Collinear points are points which lie in a

straight line.

² Perpendicular lines intersect at right

angles.

² Parallel lines are lines which never intersect.

Arrow heads indicate parallelism.

² A transversal is a line which crosses

over two other lines.

1 Copy and complete:

a Points A, B and C are ......

b The part of line BD we can see is ......

c The line parallel to line BC is ......

d The lines through B and D, C and E, and D and F, are

...... at D.

2 Draw a diagram which shows:

a line AB perpendicular to line CD b X, Y and Z being collinear

c four concurrent lines d two lines being cut by a transversal.

LINE SYMMETRY

A figure has line symmetry if it can be reflected in a line so that each

half of the figure is reflected onto the other half of the figure.

A square has 4 lines of symmetry.

Example 1 Self Tutor

For the following figures, draw all lines of symmetry:

a b c

SYMMETRY [4.2]D

A figure has a line

of symmetry if it can

be folded onto itself

along that line.

For example, an isosceles triangle has

one line of symmetry, which is the line

from its apex to the midpoint of its base.

ROTATIONAL SYMMETRY

A figure has rotational symmetry if it can be mapped onto itself more than once

as it rotates through 360o about a point called the centre of symmetry.

The flag of the Isle of Man features a symbol called a triskelion

which has rotational symmetry.

Every time you rotate the triskelion through 120o it fits onto itself.

This is done 3 times to get back to the starting position. We say

that its order of rotational symmetry is 3.

The number of times an object will fit onto itself when rotated

through 360o (one complete turn) is called its order of rotational

symmetry.

The information given is insufficient to draw a triangle of one particular shape.

However, if we are asked to accurately draw triangle ABC in which

AB = 3 cm, BC = 2 cm and AC = 4 cm, one and only one

triangular shape can be drawn.

The easiest way to draw this triangle is to use a ruler and compass

construction.

Everyone using this construction would draw the same figure.

1 Construct a triangle which has sides of length:

a 2 cm, 3 cm and 3 cm b 2 cm, 3 cm and 4 cm

c 2 cm, 3 cm and 5 cm d 2 cm, 3 cm and 7 cm.

2 Copy and complete:

“The sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle must be ............ the length of the third side”.

3 Draw a triangle ABC with all sides greater

than 6 cm in length and with the angles

at A, B and C being 60o, 50o and 70o

respectively.

Place a ruler and set

square as shown in the

figure. Slide the set square

along the ruler to the left,

keeping the ruler firmly in

place.

a Why does the hypotenuse of the set

square produce lines parallel to BC?

b Locate X on AB and Y on AC such that

XY = 4 cm.

You should now have a triangle which has angles of 60o, 50o

and 70o, and where the side opposite the 60o angle is 4 cm long.

In mathematics we use the term congruent to describe things which have the same shape and size. The

closest we get to congruence in humans is identical twins.

CONGRUENT TRIANGLES

Two triangles are congruent if they are identical in every respect except for position.

The above triangles are congruent.

We write ¢ABC »= ¢XYZ, where »= reads “is congruent to”.

When writing this congruence statement, we label the vertices that are in

corresponding positions in the same order.

So, we write ¢ABC »= ¢XYZ but not ¢YXZ or ¢ZYX.

If two triangles are equiangular (have all three angles equal), they are not necessarily congruent.

If one triangle was

cut out with scissors

and placed on the

top of the other, they

would match each

other perfectly.

Assumed Knowledge (Geometry and graphs) 11

For example, these triangles are equiangular but clearly

triangle B is much larger than triangle A.

For example, triangles C and D have two equal sides and the

same non-included angle, but they are not the same triangle.

One and only one triangle can be drawn if we are given:

² two sides and the included angle between them

² one angle is a right angle, the hypotenuse, and one other side

² two angles and a side.

There are, however, four acceptable tests for the congruence of two triangles.

TESTS FOR TRIANGLE CONGRUENCE

Two triangles are congruent if one of the following is true:

² All corresponding sides are equal in length. (SSS)

² Two sides and the included angle are equal. (SAS)

² Two angles and a pair of corresponding sides are

equal. (AAcorS)

² For right angled triangles, the hypotenuses and one

pair of sides are equal. (RHS)

The information we are given will help us decide which test to use to prove two triangles are congruent. The

diagrams in the following exercise are sketches only and are not drawn to scale. However, the information

on them is correct.

Magazines and newspapers frequently contain graphs and tables which display information. It is important

that we interpret this information correctly. We often use percentages in our analysis.

Example 3 Self Tutor

The results were collated and a bar chart drawn.

a How many retirees were not concerned about

global warming?

b How many retirees were surveyed?

c What percentage of retirees were:

i a little concerned

ii very worried about global warming?

a 40 retirees were not concerned about global warming.

The graph alongside shows the number of days’ supply of

blood for various blood groups available in a major hospital.

We can see that for blood type B+ there is enough blood for

transfusions within the next 5 days of normal usage.

a How many blood groups are there?

b What blood type is in greatest supply?

c If supply for 2 or less days is ‘critical’, what blood types

are in critical supply?

d What percentage of the available blood is AB+ or AB¡?
