• A right angle is a “square corner”.
• A right angle is 90°.
• A right angle looks like this:
More About Right Angles!More About Right Angles!
• Only right angles have a square at the
vertex.
• Right angles can be rotated many ways.
• But as long as there is a square corner,
the angle is a right angle.
Let’s Take a Quiz!Let’s Take a Quiz!
Is this a right angle?
Yes No
Awesome!!!
Let’s see how you do on the next question.
Sorry…Sorry…
Remember that right angles often have a
square at the vertex.
Let’s try again.
How about this angle? Is it a
right angle?
Yes No
Great!!!Great!!!
You really know your right angles!
Sorry…Sorry…
Remember:
If an angle is not a “square corner”, it is
not a right angle.

The Basics of AnglesThe Basics of Angles
• An angle is formed when two lines or two
line segments meet at a point.
• Here’s an angle formed by 2 rays:
• Here’s an angle formed by 2 line
segments:
More Basics of Angles…More Basics of Angles…
• This is the symbol for an angle:
• Angles are measured in degrees.
• For example, if an angle is 35 degrees, we
write it like this:
35°
Notice the
symbol for
degrees.
And More Basics of AnglesAnd More Basics of Angles
• All angles have a vertex.
• The vertex is like the “elbow” of the angle.
I’m a
vertex.
How We Mark an Angle…How We Mark an Angle…
• Sometimes we make a curve at the vertex to
show measurement.
• When the angle is a right angle, we often draw a
square at the vertex.

• This one was tricky.
• We know the angle is not obtuse for 2
reasons.
– The angle has a square at the vertex.
– The angle is a “square corner”.
• Both of these facts make it a right angle.

• I have some good news and some bad news.
• The Bad News: If you thought this was a reflex
angle, you were wrong.
• Pay attention to the measurement arc.
• The Good News: If the measurement arc was on
the other part of the angle, it would be a reflex
angle.
