Let’s go through each problem one by one. We’re classifying angles as
acute,
obtuse,
right, or
straight.
Here’s what each means:
-
Acute angle: Less than 90°
-
Right angle: Exactly 90° (looks like a corner of a square)
-
Obtuse angle: More than 90° but less than 180°
-
Straight angle: Exactly 180° (looks like a straight line)

Part 1: Visual Angles (Problems 1–10)
We’ll look at the shape of each angle and decide based on how wide it opens.
1) Looks wider than 90°, not straight →
obtuse
2) Very small, sharp point →
acute
3) Wider than 90°, not straight →
obtuse
4) Small, narrow opening →
acute
5) Almost flat, very close to straight →
straight (it’s drawn as a straight line with arrows)
6) Slightly more than 90° →
obtuse
7) Wide open, clearly over 90° →
obtuse
8) Very narrow, tiny angle →
acute
9) Sharp, less than 90° →
acute
10) Small, pointed angle →
acute
Wait — let’s double-check #5. If it’s drawn as a straight line with two opposite rays, that’s a straight angle = 180° → yes,
straight.

Part 2: Degree Measures (Problems 11–20)
Now we use the numbers:
11) 84° → less than 90 →
acute
12) 89° → still less than 90 →
acute
13) 25° → way less →
acute
14) 50° → less than 90 →
acute
15) 180° → exactly straight →
straight
16) 166° → between 90 and 180 →
obtuse
17) 90° → exact right angle →
right
18) 125° → between 90 and 180 →
obtuse
19) 149° → also between 90 and 180 →
obtuse
20) 106° → same range →
obtuse
Double-checking all:
- Acute: <90 → 84, 89, 25, 50 → correct
- Right: =90 → only 90 → correct
- Obtuse: >90 and <180 → 166, 125, 149, 106 → correct
- Straight: =180 → only 180 → correct
Visual ones again:
1) obtuse ✔️
2) acute ✔️
3) obtuse ✔️
4) acute ✔️
5) straight ✔️
6) obtuse ✔️
7) obtuse ✔️
8) acute ✔️
9) acute ✔️
10) acute ✔️
All good.
