Exploring Right, Acute, and Obtuse Angles

Mrs. Roosev introduces angles, explaining that they are measured in degrees. She covers three types of angles: right angles, which are exactly 90 degrees and formed by perpendicular lines; acute angles, which are less than 90 degrees and can be remembered as 'small and cute'; and obtuse angles, which are greater than 90 degrees. The video provides examples and visual cues to help students identify each type of angle.

What unit is used to measure angles?
