Understanding Lines and Angles

This video tutorial introduces the basics of geometry, covering lines, line segments, rays, and polygons. It explains different types of angles, including right, acute, and obtuse angles, and demonstrates how to measure them using a divider and protector. The tutorial also includes practical examples, such as using a clock to understand angles, and provides self-assessment exercises to reinforce learning.
