Types and Classification of Angles

This video tutorial introduces the concepts of right, acute, and obtuse angles. Right angles are exactly 90 degrees and are identified by a small box at the vertex. Acute angles measure less than 90 degrees, while obtuse angles are greater than 90 degrees but less than 180 degrees. The video explains how to identify each type of angle and provides visual cues for recognition. It concludes with a summary of the differences between these angles.

What is a defining feature of a right angle?

• It looks like an L and has a small box at the vertex.

• It is any angle greater than 90°.

• It measures exactly 180°.

• It is any angle less than 90°.

Which of the following angles is considered acute?

• 90°

• 45°

• 180°

• Acute

• Right

What is the range of degrees for an obtuse angle?

• 91° to 179°

• 90° to 180°

• 1° to 89°

• 180° to 360°

Which angle is NOT obtuse?

• 150°

• 135°
