What angle is greater than 0 degrees and less than 90 degrees?

• Obtuse

• Reflex

• Acute

• Right Angle

Draw an angle that is a right angle, label the corner.

Answer explanation

A 90 degree angle is the same as a quarter turn. It is exactly a quarter of 360 degrees.

Name the exterior angle and estimate how many degrees are in it.

Answer explanation

Reflex angle between 310-320 degrees.

What is the value of x?

Answer explanation

The triangle is isosceles so both angles are the same. 180- 110 = 70.

70 divided by 2 = 35 degrees.

What is the size of angle x?

Answer explanation

Angles on a straight line = 180 degrees.

73 + 86 = 159 degrees

180 - 159 = 21 degrees

What is the value of angle B?

• 75 degrees

• 210 degrees

• 105 degrees

• 180 degrees

Answer explanation

Vertically opposite angles are equal.

75 + 75 = 150

360 (full circle) - 150 = 210

210 divided by 2 = 105 degrees.
