Identifying Angles

Take a look at these angles: What kind are they? Give mathematicians practice identifying obtuse, acute, and right angles in this categorizing activity. Each type is pictured and explained at the top, and scholars examine nine sample...

Learners study acute triangles. They measure angles using a protractor, then classify the triangles as either right, obtuse, or acute. Everyone creates a design for a Navajo rug using only acute triangles.

Three letter-sized mini posters can be displayed in your elementary geometry class when teaching about angles. One provides information about degree measurement and additive properties, and the other two define acute, right, obtuse,...

Learners identify obtuse and acute angles in comparsion to a right angle. They identify obtuse, acute, and right angles. Pupils use "Shape Measure" to construct obtuse, acute, and right angles. They review line segements to locate right...

Get out those protractors! Once geometers can identify obtuse, acute, right, and straight angles, get them to measure and draw their own. There are six boxes here, each with an angle measurement. Learners use a protractor to draw the...

The four major types of angles, right, obtuse, acute, and straight are described in this fine presentation. First, the important vocabulary associated with angles is presented, then the types of angles are described. A protractor is...

Fourth and fifth graders investigate angles and name them according to the criteria for obtuse, acute, and right angles. They examine a human-made yarn pattern on the floor of their classroom and identify angles, vertices, and types of...

Students identify and label acute, obtuse, and right angles within a picture. Using Kid Pix software and digital photos, they manipulate, identify, and label the angles and describe the angles to a classmate.

Triangles are classified by their angle measurement as well as by the length of their sides. Here are some names that identify the types of triangles: right, isosceles, equilateral, scalene, obtuse, and acute. Watch this video to learn...

Angles are identified by the measurement of their angles. Well, that would make sense. The instructor illustrates four different angles and their names by identifying their degrees. Zero to less than 90 degrees is an acute angle, while...
