Angles:
An angle is the union of two nonparallel rays originating from the same point; this point is called as the vertex. The rays are called as sides of the angle, as display in Figure.

If ray AB is on top of ray BC, then the angle ABC is a zero angle. A single complete revolution of a ray gives an angle of 360°.

Depending on the rotation of a ray, an angle can be categorized as right, acute, straight, obtuse, or reflex. These angles are described as follows:
Right Angle - angle with a ray separated through 90°.

Straight Angle - angle with a ray separated through 180° to form a straight line.

Acute Angle - angle along with a ray separated by less than 90°.

Obtuse Angle - angle along with a ray rotated greater than 90° but less than 180°.

Reflex Angle - angle within a ray rotated greater than 180°.

If angles are next for each other, they are known as adjacent angles. If the sum of two angles equals 90°, they are called complimentary angles. For example, 27° and 63° are complimentary angles. If the sum of two angles equals 180°, they are called supplementary angles. For example, 73° and 107° are supplementary angles.
