Column A



Column B



(i) Straight angle



(c) Half of a revolution



(ii) Right angle



(d) One-fourth of a revolution



(iii) Acute angle



(a) Less than one-fourth of a revolution



(iv) Obtuse angle



(e) Between and of a revolution



(v) Reflex angle



(b) More than half a revolution



(i) Straight angle – It is formed when legs are pointing in opposite direction and they form a straight line through the vertex of the angle. Thus measure of a straight line is always 180°.


Let’s discuss revolution a revolution is a complete turn or a full rotation so it points back the same way and form an angle of 360°. And a straight angle is the half of the revolution that is 180°.


(ii) Right angle is of 90° and 90° is the of the 360°


(iii) Acute angle is less than 90° so it will be less than one-fourth of a revolution as 90° is the one-fourth.


(iv) Obtuse angle is the angle greater than 90° but less than 180° so it will be in between one-fourth and half of the revolution.


(v) Reflex angle whose measure is greater than 180° but less than 360° so it is more than half a revolution.
