Lesson 18 — Activity 1: Different Types of Angles
Getting Ready
This first activity will introduce you to the different types of angles.
You can find examples of angles in everyday life. The corner of a fridge is a right angle. There is an acute angle between your keyboard on the computer and the desk it sits on. When you lean back in your chair, the back of the chair and your desktop are at an obtuse angle. When you open up a book and lay it flat, you get a straight angle.
Think about This:
Find examples of angles in your classroom or at home. You will be amazed at how many you can find!
