Dive into the concepts of angle addition and segment addition postulates. Learn how to make and defend conjectures, construct geometric arguments, and apply theorems to solve problems involving angles and lines. This guide includes practical examples such as calculating angles and segment lengths using given relationships between points. Understand how to use the angle addition postulate to find missing angle measures and apply the segment addition postulate to determine distances between points on a line.

1.3: Angles- Angles and segment addition postulate GSE M(G&M)–10–2 Makes and defends conjectures, constructs geometric arguments, uses geometric properties, or uses theorems to solve problems involving angles, lines
Angle Addition Postulate • If R is in the interior of PQS, then m PQR + m RQS = m PQS. P R 30 20 Q S
Example of Angle Addition Postulate 100 Ans: x+40 + 3x-20 = 8x-60 4x + 20 = 8x – 60 80 = 4x 20 = x 40 60 Angle PRQ = 20+40 = 60 Angle QRS = 3(20) -20 = 40 Angle PRS = 8 (20)-60 = 100

A flight from PVD to NY is 143 miles A flight from PVD to Washington DC is 355 miles A flight from NY to Washington DC is _____ miles
Seg. Add. Post. Example • If J is between H and K and HJ=5x-3 , JK = 4x, HK = 8x, find HJ, JK, HK • Ans: Draw a diagram
Example • M is between L and N. Find each measurement if: LM = 4x+6 , LN = 5x+10 MN = 3x – 4 LM + MN = LN LM =4(4)+6 = 22 MN = 3(4)-4 = 8 LN = 5(4)+10 = 30
