The measure of angle A is 73 classify the angle acute, right, obtuse or straight
My answer is acute.
Right.
Your answer is incorrect. To correctly classify the angle, we need to consider the measure of angle A.
By definition:
- An acute angle is less than 90 degrees.
- A right angle is exactly 90 degrees.
- An obtuse angle is greater than 90 degrees but less than 180 degrees.
- A straight angle is exactly 180 degrees.
Since the measure of angle A is 73 degrees, it is less than 90 degrees. Therefore, angle A is an acute angle.
To classify an angle as acute, right, obtuse, or straight, we need to compare the measure of the angle to certain criteria.
1. Acute Angle: An acute angle is an angle that measures less than 90 degrees.
2. Right Angle: A right angle is an angle that measures exactly 90 degrees.
3. Obtuse Angle: An obtuse angle is an angle that measures between 90 and 180 degrees.
4. Straight Angle: A straight angle is an angle that measures exactly 180 degrees.
In this case, the measure of angle A is given as 73 degrees. Since this measure is less than 90 degrees, we can classify angle A as an acute angle. Therefore, your answer of "acute" is correct.
