Determine the type of angle given.
To determine the type of angle, consider this interpretation:
Therefore, the type of angle in the diagram is Acute.
Acute
True or false:
DE not a side in any of the triangles.
Look for angles that appear sharp and narrow. If the angle opening is clearly smaller than the corner of a square or rectangle, it's acute. Think of it as a pointy angle!
Acute angles are less than 90° and look sharp. Obtuse angles are greater than 90° but less than 180° and look wide or blunt. Use a right angle (90°) as your reference point!
Not for visual classification! You just need to compare the angle to 90°. If it looks smaller than a square corner, it's acute. If larger, it's obtuse.
Look carefully at the diagram. If the angle appears slightly less than a right angle, it's acute. If it appears exactly like a square corner, it's a right angle (90°).
Yes! When two straight lines intersect, they can form four different angles. Some of these angles can be acute, depending on how the lines cross each other.
