Angles 2 and 7, as well as angles 3 and 6 are examples of alternate interior angles. Similarly, we also have alternate exterior angles that are located outside of the two intersected lines and on opposite sides of the transversal. An example of this relationship would be angles 1 and 8, as well as angles 4 and 5. The last angle relationship is consecutive interior angles. These angles are located on the same side of the transversal and inside of the two lines.
Angles that are exactly 90 degrees are called right angles. Angles less than 90 degrees are called as acute angles. Angles that are exactly 180 degrees is called as straight angle. Angles less than 180 degrees yet greater than 90 degrees are called as obtuse angles. Common Misspellings: Angle is often mispelled angel. Examples: The angle of a typical house rooftop is often an obtuse angle. Two lines or rays meet together to form an angle. 1  Article. Review Your Chemistry Terms with This Glossary (C) 2  Article.
