Math with Mr. Jay: Types of Angles

Introduction

  • This video provides a quick review of five different types of angles.

1. Acute Angle

  • An acute angle measures less than 90 degrees.
  • Example: Angle measuring 27 degrees.

2. Obtuse Angle

  • An obtuse angle is greater than 90 degrees but less than 180 degrees.
  • Example: Angle measuring 143 degrees.

3. Straight Angle

  • A straight angle measures exactly 180 degrees.
  • Example provided for clarity.

4. Reflex Angle

  • Reflex angles are greater than 180 degrees but less than 360 degrees.
  • A full rotation (360 degrees) creates a full circle.
  • Example: Angle measuring 298 degrees.

5. Right Angle

  • A right angle is exactly 90 degrees.
  • Often indicated by a square in the corner, without explicitly stating "90 degrees".

Conclusion

  • Mr. Jay concludes the video by hoping the review helps viewers understand the different types of angles.
