The correct Answer is:
To answer the question about the measures of a right angle and a straight angle, we can break it down step by step: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Right Angles**: - A right angle is formed when two lines intersect to create an angle of 90 degrees. - This can be visualized as one line being vertical and the other being horizontal, creating a corner similar to the corner of a square. **Measure of a Right Angle**: - A right angle measures **90 degrees**. 2. **Understanding Straight Angles**: - A straight angle is formed when two lines are aligned in a straight line, creating an angle of 180 degrees. - This means that if you were to draw a line and then extend it in both directions, the angle formed is a straight angle. **Measure of a Straight Angle**: - A straight angle measures **180 degrees**. ### Final Answers: - (i) The measure of a right angle is **90 degrees**. - (ii) The measure of a straight angle is **180 degrees**. ---
