Vocabulary
Intersecting Arms Acute
Parallel Vertex Obtuse
perpendicular angles right
Angles - When two rays meet at a point, an angle is formed
Vertex of the angle – The common point where two rays meet.
Measure of an Angle
An angle is measured in degrees (°).
An angle can range from 0° to 360°.
We measure angles using an instrument called Protractor.
