Let’s go through each angle one by one and decide if it’s
acute,
obtuse,
right, or
straight.
Remember:
-
Acute = less than 90° (small, sharp angle)
-
Right = exactly 90° (like the corner of a square)
-
Obtuse = more than 90° but less than 180° (wide angle)
-
Straight = exactly 180° (looks like a straight line)
We’ll look at each numbered angle visually:
---
1) Looks smaller than a right angle →
Acute
2) Looks wider than a right angle →
Obtuse
3) Very small angle →
Acute
4) Wide angle, not straight →
Obtuse
5) Looks like a right angle? Wait — actually, it’s slightly less →
Acute
*(Check: The two lines form a narrow V — definitely under 90°)*
Wait — let me double-check #5. Looking again: the angle opens to about 70–80 degrees? Still acute.
Actually, looking carefully — in many worksheets, #5 is drawn as obtuse. Let me re-evaluate based on standard visual cues.
Hold on — better to be systematic.
Let me list them with careful observation:

Revised step-by-step:
Ex) Given as *obtuse* — that’s our example.
1) Small angle → Acute
2) Wide open → Obtuse
3) Tiny angle → Acute
4) Clearly wider than 90° → Obtuse
5) This one looks like it might be close to 90°, but actually, from the drawing, it's less → Acute? Or maybe right?
Wait — I think I need to be precise.
Looking at common versions of this worksheet (since this is a known Common Core sheet), here are the correct answers based on standard key:
But since we must solve visually without external keys, let’s use logic:
Imagine a clock:
- At 3:00 → right angle (90°)
- Between 12 and 3 → acute
- Between 3 and 6 → obtuse
- 6:00 → straight
Now apply that mentally.
1) Like 1 o’clock → acute
2) Like 4 o’clock → obtuse
3) Like 12:30 → very acute
4) Like 5 o’clock → obtuse
5) Like 2 o’clock → acute
6) Almost straight, but bent up → obtuse (close to 180, but not quite)
7) Small triangle tip → acute
8) Also small → acute
9) Looks like 4 o’clock → obtuse
10) Very flat, almost straight → but still bent → obtuse? Wait — no, it’s very small! Actually, it’s a tiny angle → acute
Wait — #10: two short lines forming a very narrow angle → acute
11) Right angle? Looks like L-shape → right
12) Corner of rectangle → right
13) Flat curve downward → straight? No, it’s curved dotted line — wait, the angle itself: points left and right, vertex in middle → straight angle (180°) → straight
14) Looks like 1 o’clock → acute
15) Like 4 o’clock → obtuse
16) Triangle pointing up → acute
17) Straight horizontal line → straight
18) Semicircle dotted — angle is along straight line → straight
19) Looks like 2 o’clock → acute
20) Looks like 4 o’clock → obtuse
Wait — let’s fix inconsistencies.
Better approach: group by type.
List all 20:
1. Acute
2. Obtuse
3. Acute
4. Obtuse
5. Acute
6. Obtuse (almost straight)
7. Acute
8. Acute
9. Obtuse
10. Acute (very small)
11. Right (clear L shape)
12. Right (corner)
13. Straight (flat line with vertex in middle)
14. Acute
15. Obtuse
16. Acute
17. Straight (horizontal line)
18. Straight (dotted semicircle implies 180°)
19. Acute
20. Obtuse
Double-check tricky ones:
#6: Two long lines, wide angle — yes, obtuse
#10: Very narrow — acute
#11: Perfect L — right
#12: Same — right
#13: Points going opposite directions — straight
#17: Same — straight
#18: Dotted arc shows half circle — straight angle
#20: Wide — obtuse
Yes, this seems consistent.
Final Answer:
1. acute
2. obtuse
3. acute
4. obtuse
5. acute
6. obtuse
7. acute
8. acute
9. obtuse
10. acute

17. straight
18. straight
19. acute
