In the figure, if we cut from point B to point C, then we have line segment BC
or BC. If we cut from point C to point D, CD contains one endpoint and one
arrowhead. Therefore, CD becomes a ray, ray CD or CD.

Ray AB meets with ray AC at point A. When two rays meet at a common
endpoint, they form an angle. Point A, the common endpoint, is also called the
vertex of the angle. An angle can be named in 3 ways:

BAC is read as "angle BAC."

CAB is read as "angle CAB."
A is read as "angle A"

An angle is measured in degrees ( ° ). Angles can be classified according to their

measurements.

A right angle measures 90°. It forms a square corner.

An acute angle measures less than 90°. It is smaller than that

of a right angle.

An obtuse angle measures more than 90°, but less than 180° .
