Classify this angle as either a(n) acute angle, right angle, or obtuse angle.
Explanation
A right angle is formed when two lines or sides intersect to form a 90-degree angle. In this case, the given angle is classified as a right angle because it measures exactly 90 degrees. This means that the angle is perpendicular and forms a perfect L shape.Rate this question:

Positive angle
- B.
Negative angle
- C.
Line
Correct Answer
A. Positive angleExplanation
A positive angle is an angle that is measured counterclockwise from the initial side to the terminal side. In this case, since the question is asking about "what kind of angle" it is, and the answer is "Positive angle," it suggests that the angle being referred to is measured in a counterclockwise direction.Rate this question:
