Anticipatory Set / Introduction
 TODAY, we will use those skills to help us classify different types of angles.
 “Angel” songs.
 Say… As an introduction to today’s lesson I would like to play a few songs. Listen to the songs and tell me what they all have
in common. Play pieces of songs that all mention the word “Angel”. Tell them not to shout out the answer because it may
take some a few songs before they figure it out. When ready, call on a student or have students answer together,
They all deal with _________? Answer: They all deal with “Angels!”

Today, I have been inspired to title our lesson “The Angel of Angles”.
Display, “The Angel of Angles”
Where do we see Angles?
Well… Let’s see… Continue with PowerPoint.
Teacher Input
 Play Angel songs and show PowerPoint (The Angel of Angles) to introduce today’s lesson on angles.
 Pass out student notes.
 Define different types of angles: Right, Straight, Acute, Obtuse (Tree Map)
 Talk about how you measure and draw angles with a protractor.
 Move on to “Pairs of Angles”. Ask students how many a “pair” is. They should say 2.
 Discuss these pairs of angles: Complementary, Supplementary, Vertical, and Adjacent
Complementary Trick: Starts with a “C”. Draw a “C” on the board. The “C” can be turned into a number.
Supplementary Trick: Starts with a “S”. Draw a “S” on the board. The “S” can be turned into a number.



Explain and demonstrate how to use what you have just learned about angles to find the measurements of missing angles.
Allow students to work the “you try” problems. (Independently)
Classwork: Practice sheets involving angles. (In Groups or Think, Pair, Share)
Assessment
Question students for understanding. Monitor students as they work on their classwork.
Closure
 What is an acute angle? Less than 90 degrees
 What is an obtuse angle? More than 90 degrees but not 180 degrees
 How many degrees is a straight line? 180
 How many degrees is a right angle? 90
 Complementary angles together equal how may degrees? (Think of corner) 90
 Supplementary Angles together equal how many degrees? (Think straight line) 180
 Vertical angles are _____________? Equal
 Describe what adjacent angle are. Angles that are next to each other. They share a side.
Student Notes
Angles
Lesson 8.3.1
Section 1 – Angle Types
Angle Types
Right Angle
Measures exactly 90°
Straight Angle
Measures exactly 180°
Acute Angle
Measures less than 90°
Obtuse Angle
Measures greater than 90°
Draw your own example of the following angles without a protractor:
Acute Angle
Right Angle
Straight Angle
Obtuse Angle
Section 2 – Measuring and Drawing Angles
Protractors have two sets of numbers going in opposite directions.
Be careful which ones you use!
When in doubt, think…
Should this angle be bigger or smaller than 90º ?”
1) Use a protractor to measure the following angles:
a.
This is an acute angle. We know that
acute angles are smaller than 90°.
Which scale should we use to measure
our angle? top -or- bottom
What is the measurement?
Answer: __________
b.
This is an obtuse angle. We know that
obtuse angles are bigger than 90°.
Which scale should we use to measure
our angle? top -or- bottom
What is the measurement?
Answer: __________
2) Draw the following angles using a protractor. Identify the type of angle you drew.
a. 75°
b. 160°
c. 90°
Section 3 – Pairs of Angles
Complementary Angles – Two angles that add together to equal exactly 90°
Tip! Complementary Angles make a Corner.
Supplementary Angles – Two angles that add together to equal exactly 180°
Tip! Supplementary Angles make a Straight Line
Adjacent Angles – Angles that are next to one another.
They share a side.
A and
B are adjacent angles.
Vertical Angles – Angles that are across from one another (or opposite).
Vertical angles have equal measurements.
A and
B are vertical angles.
D and
C are vertical angles.
