Trigonometry is suject tht involves the mesurement of sides nd ngles of tringles nd their reltionship to ech other. This chpter involves the mesurement of ngles nd introduces types of tringle. P c d N Q 0. ngulr mesurement n ngle is the mount of rottion etween two stright lines. ngles my e mesured either in degrees or in rdins.

If two ngles dd up to 90 they re clled complementry ngles. If two ngles dd up to 180 they re clled supplementry ngles. Prllel lines re stright lines which re in thesme plne nd never meet.
