Types of Angles
Angles are classified into five different categories according to size: acute angles – angles less than 90o, right
angles – angles equal to 90o, obtuse angles – angles greater than 90o but less than 180o, straight angles –
angles equal to 180o, and reflex angles – angles greater than 180o. An example of each type is shown in the
table that follows. Note that right angles are usually indicated by placing small square at the vertex.
B
Types of Angles

Acute angle Right Angle Obtuse angle Straight Angle Reflex Angle

B
Two angles which have a common vertex and share a common side are A C
called adjacent angles. In the given diagram, BAC and DAC are D
adjacent angles. Adjacent angles

If the sum of two angles is 90o, the angles are said to be

complementary angles. Each angle is called the complement
of the other. Complementary angles, when placed adjacent, Complementary angles (xo + yo = 90o)
form a right angle.

If the sum of two angles is 180o, the angles are said to be

supplementary angles. Each angle is called the supplement Supplementary angles( xo+ yo = 180o)
of the other. Supplementary angles, when placed adjacent,
form a straight angle.
To measure angles in units smaller than degrees, each degree is divided into 60 equal parts, called minutes,
and each minute is further divided into 60 equal parts, called seconds. The symbols for these units are ©

Bank Job Recruitment Test Preparatory Program Math Lecture No.-1&2 ©MasterClass Page 12
 and © © respectively. For example, an angle of 52 degrees, 17 minutes, and 42 seconds is written
52o17©42© ©. In summary,

Units of Angle Measurement

1 complete revolution = 360 degrees (360o)

1 degree = 60 minutes
1 minute = 60 seconds

Intersecting & Parallel Lines

When two lines intersect, we have the following angle relationships:

Angle Relationship for Intersecting Lines

The angles opposite to each other equal :ao = co , bo = do

Each pair is called a pair of vertical angles.

The angles adjacent to each other are supplementary:

a + bo = 180o, bo + co = 180o, co+ do =180o, ao+ do = 180o
o

These relationships can be combined in the following diagram :

Note that knowing the value of any one of the angles allows us to determine the values of the other three.

Two lines which intersect at right angles are perpendicular to each other. In the given diagram, AB is
perpendicular to CD. This is denoted as AB⊥CD
A B
Lines which never intersect, no matter how far extended, are called parallel lines. In
the given diagram, AB is parallel to CD. This is denoted as ABIICD C D

When a third line, called a transversal, crosses a pair of parallel lines, we have the
following angle relationships:
l3
x y l2
y x

x y
l1
y x
l1 ║l2
Here x + y = 180. This is the “acute angle/obtuse angle” theorem. All the acute angles are equal; all the obtuse
angles are equal; and any acute angle plus any obtuse angle equals 180. (In the event the third line intersects
the parallel lines perpendicularly, then all angles equal 90o).

Polygons

A polygon is a plane (flat) closed geometric figure made up of straight line segments. Polygons are denoted
by the capital letters at their vertices. For example, the polygon in the given diagram can be denoted ABCDE.
Polygons are classified into different categories according to their number of sides. Some examples are given
in the following table

Number of sides Types of polygon Example

3 Triangle

4 Quadrilateral

5 Pentagon

6 Hexagon

Definitions of some common terms associated with polygons are given below. An example of each term is
shown opposite the definition.

Regular Polygon: A polygon which is both equilateral and equiangular.

Interior angle: An interior angle of a polygon is an angle inside the polygon at one of its vertices.
Exterior angle: An exterior angle of a polygon is an angle outside the polygon formed by one of its sides
and the extension of an adjacent side.

The sum of the measures of the interior angles of a polygon with n sides is (n – 2)180.
The measure of each interior angle of an equiangular n-gon is

If you count one exterior angle at each vertex, the sum of the measures of the exterior angles of a polygon
is always 360°.

Different Types of Triangles

Triangles are classified into three different categories according to the equality of their sides: scalene
triangles – triangles having no two sides equal, isosceles triangles – triangles having two sides equal, and
equilateral triangles – triangles having all three sides equal.

Scalene Triangle Isosceles Triangle Equilateral Triangle

In an isosceles triangle,
the two equal sides are called the legs, and the third side is called the base.
The angle formed by the legs is called the vertex angle, and the angles
opposite the legs are called the base angles. Triangles are also classified into
three different categories according to the size of their angles: acute
triangle – as triangles having all acute angles,obtuse triangles – triangles
having an obtuse angle and right triangles – triangles having a right angle.

Triangles Classified by Angles

53 78

Acute Triangle Right Triangle Obtuse Triangle

In a right triangle the two sides that form the right angle are called the legs, and the side opposite the right
angle (the longest side of the triangle) is called the hypotenuse.

Properties of Triangles
All triangles have the following general properties:

Properties of Triangles

Bank Job Recruitment Test Preparatory Program Math Lecture No.-1&2 ©MasterClass Page 15
• The sum of the angles is 180o : ao + bo +co = 180o.
• The longest side is opposite the largest angles; the shortest side is opposite the
smallest angle : If ao > bo > co , then r > s > t.
• The sum of the lengths of any two sides is greater than the length of the third : r
+ s > t, s + t > r, t + r > s

Besides the general properties just described, certain triangles have additional special properties:
Properties of Isosceles Triangle

• The base angles are equal : bo = bo

• The altitude from the vertex to the base bisects (cuts in half) both the vertex angle and the base: do =
do, m = m

Properties of Equilateral Triangles

• All the angles are equal, each measuring 60o.

Properties of Right Triangles

• The acute angles are complementary : ao + bo = 90o

• The sum of the squares of the two legs is equal to the square of the hypotenuse: r2+s2 = h2. This is called
the Pythagorean Theorem.

PYTHAGOREAN TRIPLETS
Any set of whole numbers x, y, and z, which form the sides of a right triangle, and thus satisfy the Pythagorean
relationship x2+ y2 = z2 is called a Pythagorean Triplet. Each triple is denoted x – y – z, where x and y
represent the two legs of the right triangle, and z represents the hypotenuse. Some common triplets are 3 – 4

Bank Job Recruitment Test Preparatory Program Math Lecture No.-1&2 ©MasterClass Page 16
– 5 (32 + 42 = 52), 5 -12 – 13 (52 + 122 + 132), and 8 – 15 – 17 (82 + 152 + 172). Other triplets can be obtained
from these basic ones by taking their multiples. For example, if we multiply each number in the triplet 3 – 4
– 5 by 2, we obtain the new triplet 6 – 8 - 10 (62 + 82 + 102). Similarly if we multiply each number in the
triplet 5 – 12 – 13 by 3, we obtain the new triplet 15 – 36 – 39 (152 + 362 + 392). In general, if x – y - z is a
Pythagorean triplet, then so is mx – my - mz, where m is any positive whole number.

Recognizing Pythagorean triplets can save a lot of time in solving problems involving right triangles. Suppose
that in the right triangle shown opposite we are asked to find side S. Instead of writing the Pythagorean
equation 62 + S2 = 102, and then solving for S, we can simply recognize that S is the middle number of the
Pythagorean triplet 6 – 8 – 10.

SPECIAL RIGHT TRIANGLES

Just as there are some easy triplets of numbers to help with using the Pythagorean Theorem, certain special right
triangles are well known and used frequently in problems involving trigonometry.
The most easily remembered trigonometric ratio is sin 30o = 0.5 or 1/2. This means that in a right triangle that has a 30o
angle, the hypotenuse is twice the size of the side opposite the 30o angle. If these sides of the triangle were 1 and 2, the
Pythagorean Theorem would be used to find that the other leg is 3 .

We refer to this as the special 30-60-90 right triangle. So, we have the following ratio:
leg opposite to 30o : leg opposite to 60o : hypotenuse = 1: 3 : 2.
The other special right triangle is the isosceles right triangle. Since the acute angles must be equal, they are
both 45o. Since the legs are equal, their ratio is 1. Finally, since the legs are the sides opposite and adjacent to
a 45o angle, we have that tan 45o = 1. The Pythagorean Theorem gives us the hypotenuse exactly as 2 .
The diagram below depicts the special 45 – 45 – 90 right triangle:

We have the three trigonometric ratios sin 45o = 1/ 2 , cos 45o = 1/ 2 ,

and tan 45o = 1, and the sides are in the ratio:

leg : leg : hypotenuse = 1 : 1 : 2

Area of Triangle

The area of a triangle is equal to one-half a side (called the base) multiplied by the height to that side. For
right triangles, the base is one of the legs, and the height is the other. For obtuse triangles, the base must
sometimes be extended to meet the height.

When one plane closed figure is completely contained within another plane closed Outer figure
