Classification of Angles

The document provides an introduction to angles in mathematics, defining an angle as the figure formed by two rays originating from the same point. It categorizes angles into five types: acute, right, obtuse, straight, and reflex, with each type defined by its measure. Additionally, the document includes exercises to reinforce understanding of these angle types.

ANGLES
Index
➢ Introduction of angle

➢Types of angles

➢Exercise
Yesterday we have studied about the angles. Today, we will
study about the types of angles. Before continuing today's
class we will discuss little bit about the angle.

In mathematics, if two rays start from the same point,


the figure so formed is called an angle.

(Vertex) B
arm C

Above fig. shows angle ABC.


The point where the rays intersect is called the vertex of the
angle. Here B is vertex. The two rays are called the arms of the
angle. Here BA and BC are arms of angle ABC.

Acute angle

Acute angle- An angle whose measure is


more than 0 but less than 90 is called an
acute angle.
A

60 B

than 90 but less than 180 .
So, it is an obtuse angle.
