Types of Angles

• Types of Angles in Geometry:
  • Acute Angle
  • Right Angle
  • Obtuse Angle
• Direct questions are not asked in exams, but questions based on supplementary and complementary angles do come.

Complementary Angles

• Definition: When the sum of two angles is 90°.
• Example: Complementary angle of 45° is 45°.
• Questions in exams: Finding the complementary angle of a given angle.

Supplementary Angles

• Definition: When the sum of two angles is 180°.
• Example: Supplementary angle of 20° is 160°.
• Understanding that supplementary angles means the sum is 180°.
