Straight Angles!

The Flat 180Β° Angle

Grade 5 Ontario Math πŸ“š β€’ Geometry & Spatial Sense

Hello my wonderful Grade 5 superstar! πŸ‘‹

I'm Kashef and today we're learning about Straight Angles! A straight angle is exactly 180Β° β€” it looks like a perfectly straight line. It's like opening a book all the way flat or a ruler lying straight. Ready to explore the straightest angle? Let’s go! πŸš€

🧠 What is a Straight Angle?

A straight angle measures exactly 180Β°.

It forms a straight line β€” the two rays go in exactly opposite directions.

This is a straight angle β†’ 180Β°

πŸ”„ Comparing All Angles

  • Acute Angle β†’ Less than 90Β° (small & sharp)
  • Right Angle β†’ Exactly 90Β° (square corner)
  • Obtuse Angle β†’ More than 90Β° but less than 180Β° (wide)
  • Straight Angle β†’ Exactly 180Β° (flat line)
