Question

what type of angle measures 36°?
○ obtuse
○ acute
○ opposite
○ adjacent

Explanation:

To determine the type of angle measuring \(36^\circ\), we recall the definitions:

• An acute angle is less than \(90^\circ\).
• An obtuse angle is greater than \(90^\circ\) and less than \(180^\circ\).
• "Opposite" and "adjacent" refer to positions of angles (e.g., in triangles or intersecting lines), not angle types based on measure.

Since \(36^\circ<90^\circ\), it is an acute angle.

Answer:

B. acute
