What is an Angle Measure? What is a Radian? Notes, Assignment, and KEYS
Guided Notes, Assignment, and KEYS!Are you still saying an angle measure measures the space between two rays? The "openness" between two segments? Or even worse, a "rotation"?? If this is you, the misconceptions must stop! Relearn what you are measuring when measuring an angle. After this lesson, your kids will see radians as the superior angle measuring unit!
