Angles are described by their size or degree measure. The different types of angle are summarised in the
following table:
Straight Angle
One complete turn.^12 turn.^14 turn.
One revolution= 360o. 1 straight angle= 180o: 1 right angle=90o.
Obtuse Angle
Less than a^14 turn. Between^14 turn and^12 turn. Between^12 turn and 1 turn.
An acute angle has size
between 0 oand 90 o:
An obtuse angle has size
between 90 oand 180 o:
A reflex angle has size
between 180 oand 360 o.
