To solve the question about the measures of a right angle and a straight angle, we can break it down into two parts: ### Step-by-Step Solution: **(i) Measure of a Right Angle:** 1. **Definition of Right Angle:** A right angle is formed when two lines intersect each other at a point and create an angle of 90 degrees. 2. **Visual Representation:** Imagine two lines, let's call them line PQ and line PS. If these two lines intersect at point P and are perpendicular to each other, they form a right angle. 3. **Conclusion:** Therefore, the measure of a right angle is **90 degrees**. ...
