TYPES OF ANGLES
smallest Acute (>0, <90 degrees)
Right (90 degrees)
Obtuse (>90, <180 degrees)
Straight (180 degrees)
Reflex (>180, <360 degrees)
largest Revolution (360 degrees)
ACUTE ANGLES
The internal measurement of two straight lines, where
the angle measures more than 0 but less than 90.
RIGHT ANGLES
A right angle is equal to 90
OBTUSE ANGLES
The internal measurement of two straight lines, where
the angle measures more than 90 but less than 180.
S T RA I G H T A N G L E S
A straight angle is equal to 180
REFLEX ANGLES
The external measurement of two straight lines, where
the angle measures more than 180 but less than 360.

MEASURING ANGLES
Mathematics Presentation
SEMI-CIRCLE PROTRACTOR
We can use a protractor to help us measure angles!
This is a semi-circle protractor.
PROTRACTOR
This is a full-circle protractor..
Using a
To use a protractor you line up
Protractor-
your end point and bottom ray.
Then you can find the degree of
the angle by looking at the top
ray.
NAMING AN ANGLE
There are three ways to name an angle. You can name an angle by its
vertex, by the three points of the angle (the middle point must be the
vertex), or by a letter or number written within the opening of the angle.

Adjacent angles on a
straight line sum to 180˚ Angles at a point sum to
360˚
