Angles are fundamental concepts in geometry, used to measure the space between two intersecting lines. Here's a breakdown of key angle types and their properties:
📐 Common Angle Types
- Acute Angle (acute_angle): Less than 90°, like the corner of a book.
- Right Angle (right_angle): Exactly 90°, often denoted by a small square.
- Obtuse Angle (obtuse_angle): Between 90° and 180°, found in many real-world objects.
- Straight Angle (straight_angle): 180°, forming a straight line.
🔍 Applications of Angles
Angles are essential in:
- Triangles (triangle_angles): Sum of interior angles is always 180°.
- Circles (circle_angles): Central angles relate to arc measures.
- Coordinate Geometry (coordinate_geometry): Used to calculate slopes and vectors.
