Question

Match the following:

(i) Straight angle (a) Less than one-fourth of a revolution

(ii) Right angle (b) More than half a revolution

(iii) Acute angle (c) Half of a revolution

(iv) Obtuse angle (d) One-fourth of a revolution

(v) Reflex angle (e) Between of a revolution

(f) One complete revolution

Answer 1

(i) Straight angle is of 180º and half of a revolution is 180º.

Hence, (i) ↔ (c)

(ii) Right angle is of 90º and one-fourth of a revolution is 90º.

Hence, (ii) ↔ (d)

(iii) Acute angles are the angles less than 90º. Also, less than one-fourth of a revolution is the angle less than 90º.

Hence, (iii) ↔ (a)

(iv) Obtuse angles are the angles greater than 90º but less than 180º. Also, between of a revolution is the angle whose measure lies between 90º and 180º.

Hence, (iv) ↔ (e)

(v) Reflex angles are the angles greater than 180º but less than 360º. Also, more than half a revolution is the angle whose measure is greater than 180º.

Hence, (v) ↔ (b)
