  • Straight angles: Measures exactly 180 degrees.
  • Complementary angles: Two angles that add up to 90 degrees.
  • Supplementary angles: Two angles that add up to 180 degrees.
  • Vertical angles: Formed by intersecting lines, these angles are opposite to each other and are equal in measure.

Types of Triangles
