Angle

s
 Definition
When two straight lines meet at a
point they form an angle.
B

O A

They are represented as ∠AOB

 Properties of an
angle

1. OA and OB are called arms of ∠AOB.

2. The point at which the arms meet (O) is known
as the vertex of the angle.
3. The amount of turning from one arm (OA) to
other (OB) is called the measure of the angle.
4. An angle is measured in degrees.
