Description

This clip art image is part of a series on categorizing angles in geometry. It illustrates an obtuse angle, which is an angle measuring more than 90 degrees but less than 180 degrees. The image provides a clear visual representation of an obtuse angle, highlighting that these angles are always greater than a right angle but less than a straight line.

Using such math clip art in geometry lessons can greatly enhance students' understanding of different angle types. The visual representation helps students grasp the concept of obtuse angles more easily than verbal descriptions alone. Teachers can integrate this image into various learning activities, making the lesson more interactive and memorable.

Teacher's Script: "Let's examine this image, class. What do you notice about this angle? That's right, it's wider than a right angle but doesn't form a straight line. This is called an obtuse angle. Remember, obtuse angles are always greater than 90 degrees but less than 180 degrees. Can you think of any examples where you might see obtuse angles in the real world?"
