Mrs. Royster 4th Grade Angles Lesson and Review

4.NC.MD.6

In this lesson, we will identify and draw angles.

Six Types of Angles

In this lesson students will learn how to identify different types of angles.

Right Angle

An angle of 90°, as in a corner of a square or at the intersection of two perpendicular straight lines.

Acute Angle

An acute angle is an angle that measures between 90° and 0°, meaning it is smaller than a right angle (an “L” shape) but has at least some space between the two lines that form it.

Obtuse Angle

In Geometry, an obtuse angle is an angle that is greater than 90° and less than 180°

Straight Angle

A straight angle always forms a straight line. The value of the straight angle is 180°.

Reflex Angles

A reflex angle is the larger angle, it’s always more than 180° (half a circle) but less than 360° (A full circle). It’s possibly the most confusing of the angles because it’s always on the outside.

Full Angle

A Full Angle is an angle that has a measure of exactly 360°. I looks like a circle.
