Guided Notes

3 key concepts

  • 1

    The Angle Addition Postulate states if point X is interior to ∠ABC, then m∠ABX + m∠XBC = m∠ABC.

  • 2

    If m∠KLB = 26° and m∠BLM = 60°, and B is interior to ∠KLM, then m∠KLM = 86°.

  • 3

    If m∠EDC = 145° and m∠EDW = 61°, then to find m∠WDC, we can subtract 61° from 145°.
