Types of Angles - Examples, Exercises and Solutions

We add the three angles to see if they are equal to 180 degrees:

$56+89+17=162$

The sum of the given angles is not equal to 180, so they cannot form a triangle.

We add the three angles to see if they are equal to 180 degrees:

$90+115+35=240$
The sum of the given angles is not equal to 180, so they cannot form a triangle.

We add the three angles to see if they equal 180 degrees:

$30+60+90=180$
The sum of the angles equals 180, so they can form a triangle.

Remember that the sum of angles in a triangle is equal to 180.

In an equilateral triangle, all sides and all angles are equal to each other.

Therefore, we will calculate as follows:

$x+x+x=180$

$3x=180$

We divide both sides by 3:

$x=60$

The unmarked angle is adjacent to an angle of 160 degrees.

Remember: the sum of adjacent angles is 180 degrees.

Therefore, the size of the unknown angle is:

$180-160=20$

In a right-angled triangle, there is one angle that equals 90 degrees, and the other two angles sum up to 180 degrees (sum of angles in a triangle)

Therefore, the sum of the two non-right angles is 90 degrees

$90+90=180$

Remember that an acute angle is smaller than 90 degrees, an obtuse angle is larger than 90 degrees, and a straight angle equals 180 degrees.

Since the lines are perpendicular to each other, the marked angles are right angles each equal to 90 degrees.

Since this is an equilateral triangle, all angles are also equal.

As the sum of angles in a triangle is 180 degrees, each angle is equal to 60 degrees. (180:3=60)

From this, we can conclude that: $60=8x$

Let's divide both sides by 8:

$\frac{60}{8}=\frac{8x}{8}$

$7.5=x$

Since in an equilateral triangle all sides are equal and all angles are equal. It is also known that in a triangle the sum of angles is 180°, we can calculate X in the following way:

$X+5+X+5+X+5=180$

$3X+15=180$

$3X=180-15$

$3X=165$

Let's divide both sides by 3:

$\frac{3X}{3}=\frac{165}{3}$

$X=55$

If we try to draw two obtuse angles and connect them to form a triangle (i.e., only 3 sides), we will see that it is not possible.

Therefore, the answer is no.

Answer B is correct because the more closed the angle is, the more acute it is (less than 90 degrees), meaning it's smaller.

The more open the angle is, the more obtuse it is (greater than 90 degrees), meaning it's larger.

In drawing A, we can see that the angle is an obtuse angle, meaning it is larger than 90 degrees:

While in drawing B, the angle is a right angle, meaning it equals 90 degrees:

Therefore, the larger angle appears in drawing A.

In drawing A, we can see that the angle is more closed:

While in drawing B, the angle is more open:

In other words, in drawing A the angle is more acute, while in drawing B the angle is more obtuse.

We'll remember that the more obtuse an angle is, the larger it is.

Therefore, the larger angle appears in drawing B.

Note that in drawing A, the angle is a straight angle equal to 180 degrees:

While in drawing B, we are given a right angle, equal to 90 degrees:

Therefore, the angle in drawing A is larger.

Note that in drawing B, the two lines form a right angle, which is an angle of 90 degrees:

While the angle in drawing A is greater than 90 degrees:

Therefore, the angle in drawing A is larger.
