DEFINING LINES a MATH PROJECT
1. Use you protractor and straightedge to create 65°, 90° & 119° angles. Label each as acute, obtuse, or right. 2. Make a 126° angle. Label it ∠ BIG. Create angle bisector IF.
Defining Line & Angle Relationships 1. 2.
Objectives: Define special line & angle relationships. Learn more vocabulary.
