Concept Check

Classify each angle as right. acute, or obtuse.

Question 6.

An angle that measures greater than 0° and less than 90° is called acute angle. As you can observe in the above figure, the angle given is less than 90°.

Question 7.

The angle which measures 90 degrees is known as right angle. As you can observe in the above figure, the angle given is equal to 90°.

Question 8.

An angle measures greater than 90° but less than 180° is called Obtuse angle. As you can observe in the above figure, the angle given is greater than 90°.

Problem Solving

Question 9.
An angle on a grocery cart is made up of 100 one-degree angles. Find the measure of the angle.

By definition, an angle that is made up of N one-degree angles has a measure of N degrees. Therefore, the measure of the angle is 100°.

Question 10.
The angle shown is made up of 112 one-degree angles. Find the measure of the angle.

By definition, an angle that is made up of N one-degree angles has a measure of N degrees. Therefore, the measure of the angle is 112°.

Question 11.
Draw an angle that measures between 40° and 50°.

The angle measured in the above figure will be between 40° and 50°.

Test Practice

Question 12.
What is the measure of the angle in degrees and as a fraction of a full turn?

(A) 90°; $$\frac{3}{4}$$ turn
(B) 90°; $$\frac{1}{360}$$ turn
(C) 90°; $$\frac{1}{4}$$ turn
(D) 180°; $$\frac{1}{2}$$ turn
Answer: C (90°; $$\frac{1}{4}$$ turn)
The angle mentioned above is a right angle, which is 90 degrees.
Total angle = 360 degrees
So, if you divide 90 degrees by 360 degrees, we will get the fraction as $$\frac{1}{4}$$
$$\frac{90}{360}$$ = $$\frac{1}{4}$$ after simplification.
