Here we are going to see about the introduction to angles. The angle is referred as a figure which is formed by distribution of two rays with a common point. This common point is referred as end point. The word angle is from the Latin word angulus which defines the point in corner. There are many types of angles in this we are going to see about the acute angles.
The acute angle is the type of angle which measures the angle between 0 to 90 degree and less than the 90 degree. The normal picture of the acute angle is given as,
Pictures of acute angle:
The acute angles are referred by using the pictures which measures the angle less then 90 degree. The pictures of the acute angles are given below as examples.
Picture 1:
This is the picture of acute angle which defines that the angle measured in this picture is 480 which is less than 90 degree.
Picture 2:
This is other picture of acute angle which defines that the angle measured in this picture is 280 which is less than 90 degree.
Picture 3:
This is the picture of acute angle which defines that the angle measured in this picture is 370 which is less than 90 degree.
Picture 4:
This is also a picture of acute angle which defines that the angle measured in this picture is 630 which is less than 90 degree.
Picture 5:
This is also a picture of acute angle which defines that the angle measured in this picture is 490 which is less than 90 degree.
Picture 6:
This is also a picture of acute angle which defines that the angle measured in this picture is 720 which is less than 90 degree.
Example problems
Problem 1:
When the angle a-1800 is an acute angle. what is the value of a?
Options:
a) 2400
b) 3000
c) 2900
d) 3200
Solution:
Acute angle is the angle which measures less than 90 degree or 90 degree.
When 2400-1800 = 600.
Hence the value of a is 600.
Problem 2:
When the angle y - 900 is an acute angle. what is the maximum value of y?
Options:
a) 1700
b) 2000
c) 1000
d) 5400
Solution:
Since the acute angle measures less than 90 degree. The maximum value of y is 1700.
Where 2000- 900 = 1100, since it is greater than 90 degree this is not an acute angle.
1000- 900 = 100, since it is less than 90 degree this is an acute angle but it is the minimum value.
5400- 900 = 4500, since it is greater than 90 degree this is not an acute angle.
1700- 900 = 800, since it is less than 90 degree this is an acute angle.
