Angles and Polygons.

Types of angles and polygons

 

Angles are the measurements of the space between two lines, and polygons are shapes with multiple straight sides.

 

Some common types of angles include:

 

Right angle: A right angle measures 90 degrees, like the corner of a square.

Acute angle: An acute angle is less than 90 degrees, like the angle at the tip of a triangle.

Obtuse angle: An obtuse angle is greater than 90 degrees, like the angle at the bottom of a triangle.

Some common types of polygons include:

 

Triangle: A triangle has three sides and three angles, like a slice of pizza.

Square: A square has four sides and four right angles, like a piece of paper.

Pentagon: A pentagon has five sides and five angles, like a soccer ball.

 

Angles:

 

Straight angle: A straight angle measures 180 degrees, like a line drawn across a page.

Reflex angle: A reflex angle is greater than 180 degrees but less than 360 degrees, like the angle formed when you fold a piece of paper in half.

Complementary angles: Two angles are complementary if their sum equals 90 degrees, like the angles at the base of an isosceles triangle.

Polygons:

 

Hexagon: A hexagon has six sides and six angles, like a stop sign.

Octagon: An octagon has eight sides and eight angles, like a stop sign but with more sides.

Circle: Although not a polygon, a circle is a shape with infinite sides and no angles, like a wheel.

Additionally, polygons can be classified based on their number of sides, as follows:

 

Three sides: triangle

Four sides: quadrilateral

Five sides: pentagon

Six sides: hexagon

Seven sides: heptagon

Eight sides: octagon

Nine sides: nonagon

Ten sides: decagon

INEQUALITIES

 

Inequality is a comparison between two values, showing that one value is greater than, less than, or equal to the other value.

 

Here are some examples:

 

3 < 5 – This reads as “3 is less than 5.”

7 > 4 – This reads as “7 is greater than 4.”

2 ≤ 2 – This reads as “2 is less than or equal to 2.”

9 ≥ 9 – This reads as “9 is greater than or equal to 9.”

We use symbols to represent the relationship between the two values:

 

< (less than) – used to show that one value is smaller than the other.

(greater than) – used to show that one value is larger than the other.

 

≤ (less than or equal to) – used to show that one value is smaller than or equal to the other.

≥ (greater than or equal to) – used to show that one value is larger than or equal to the other.

We can also use variables in inequalities. Here’s an example:

 

x + 5 > 10 – This reads as “the sum of x and 5 is greater than 10.”

We can solve this inequality to find the value of x:

 

x > 5 – This reads as “x is greater than 5.”

Understanding inequalities is important in math and everyday life, as they help us make comparisons and decisions based on values.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Worked Samples

1. Solve the inequality 4x + 7 < 19.

Subtract 7 from both sides: 4x < 12

Divide both sides by 4: x < 3

The solution is x is less than 3.

2. Solve the inequality 3x – 5 > 10.

Add 5 to both sides: 3x > 15

Divide both sides by 3: x > 5

The solution is x is greater than 5.

3. Solve the inequality 2x + 1 ≤ 7.

Subtract 1 from both sides: 2x ≤ 6

Divide both sides by 2: x ≤ 3

The solution is x is less than or equal to 3.

4. Solve the inequality 2(x + 1) > 6.

Distribute the 2: 2x + 2 > 6

Subtract 2 from both sides: 2x > 4

Divide both sides by 2: x > 2

The solution is x is greater than 2.

5. Solve the inequality 3(x – 4) ≤ -6.

Distribute the 3: 3x – 12 ≤ -6

Add 12 to both sides: 3x ≤ 6

Divide both sides by 3: x ≤ 2

The solution is x is less than or equal to 2.

In each of these examples, we used the appropriate mathematical operations to isolate the variable and determine the range of values that satisfy the inequality.

 

Trigonometry

Trigonometry is the study of relationships between the sides and angles of triangles. There are three main trigonometric functions that are used to calculate these relationships: sine, cosine, and tangent.

 

Here are some examples:

 

Sine (sin) – the ratio of the length of the side opposite an angle to the length of the hypotenuse of a right-angled triangle.

sin(θ) = opposite/hypotenuse

For example, if the opposite side of an angle is 3 and the hypotenuse is 5, then sin(θ) = 3/5.

Cosine (cos) – the ratio of the length of the adjacent side to the length of the hypotenuse of a right-angled triangle.

cos(θ) = adjacent/hypotenuse

For example, if the adjacent side of an angle is 4 and the hypotenuse is 5, then cos(θ) = 4/5.

Tangent (tan) – the ratio of the length of the opposite side to the length of the adjacent side of a right-angled triangle.

tan(θ) = opposite/adjacent

For example, if the opposite side of an angle is 3 and the adjacent side is 4, then tan(θ) = 3/4.

Trigonometry can be used to solve problems involving angles and distances, such as finding the height of a building or the length of a bridge.

 

Understanding trigonometry is important in fields such as engineering, architecture, and physics.

 

 

 

 

 

Is trigonometry always used for right angle triangle? 

 

Yes, trigonometry is always used for right-angled triangles. Trigonometric functions such as sine, cosine, and tangent are defined only for right-angled triangles. These functions relate the ratios of the sides of a right-angled triangle to the measures of its angles.

 

For example, in a right-angled triangle, the sine of an angle is defined as the ratio of the length of the side opposite the angle to the length of the hypotenuse. The cosine of an angle is defined as the ratio of the length of the adjacent side to the length of the hypotenuse. The tangent of an angle is defined as the ratio of the length of the opposite side to the length of the adjacent side.

 

Trigonometry can be used to solve various problems related to right-angled triangles, such as finding missing angles or sides, or calculating distances and heights. However, if the triangle is not right-angled, trigonometry cannot be used directly. In such cases, other techniques, such as the law of sines or the law of cosines, may be used.

Pythagoras rule

Hey there! Let’s learn about Pythagoras rule!

Pythagoras rule is a formula used to find the length of the sides of a right-angled triangle. It states that the square of the length of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides.

 

Here’s an example:

 

In a right triangle with legs of length 3 and 4, what is the length of the hypotenuse?

 

The hypotenuse is the longest side of the triangle and is opposite the right angle.

Use the Pythagorean theorem: hypotenuse^2 = opposite^2 + adjacent^2

hypotenuse^2 = 3^2 + 4^2

hypotenuse^2 = 9 + 16

hypotenuse^2 = 25

hypotenuse = √25

The length of the hypotenuse is 5.

Understanding Pythagoras rule is important in solving problems related to right-angled triangles. It is also used in various fields, such as engineering and architecture.

Geometry solid shapes like cylinder, cone, cuboid, sphere, prism etc

In geometry, there are many solid shapes such as cylinder, cone, cuboid, sphere, and prism. These shapes have different properties and are used in many fields, such as architecture and engineering.

 

Here are some examples of these shapes:

 

Cylinder: A cylinder is a three-dimensional shape with two circular bases that are parallel to each other. It looks like a can of soda or a tube. Examples of cylinders include cans, pipes, and pencils.

 

Cone: A cone is a three-dimensional shape with a circular base that tapers to a point called the apex. It looks like an ice cream cone or a party hat. Examples of cones include traffic cones and volcano cones.

 

Cuboid: A cuboid is a three-dimensional shape with six rectangular faces. It looks like a box or a rectangular prism. Examples of cuboids include shoeboxes and dice.

 

Sphere: A sphere is a three-dimensional shape with a curved surface that is equidistant from a fixed point called the center. It looks like a ball or a globe. Examples of spheres include tennis balls and planets.

 

Prism: A prism is a three-dimensional shape with two parallel and congruent bases that are connected by rectangular faces. It looks like a box with a sloping top. Examples of prisms include triangular prisms and hexagonal prisms.

 

Understanding the properties of these solid shapes is important in solving problems related to their volume, surface area, and other characteristics. It is also useful in many everyday situations, such as calculating the amount of water that can be held in a cylindrical tank or finding the volume of a box.
