Answer (1)

Let's identify the type of angles:

(i) 76° - This is an acute angle because it is less than 90°.
(ii) 179° - This is an obtuse angle because it is more than 90° and less than 180°.
(iii) 89.5° - This is also an acute angle as it is less than 90°.
(iv) 278° - This is a reflex angle because it is more than 180°.

Understanding the given figures:

(i) A <-> B - This notation typically represents a bidirectional or equivalence relation .
(ii) P -> Q - This denotes an implication or logical statement meaning if P, then Q.
(iii) x --- y - This notation might represent a line segment joining x and y .

Calculating angle fractions:

(i) One-fourth of a straight angle is 4 1 ​ × 18 0 ∘ = 4 5 ∘ , which is an acute angle.
(ii) Two-thirds of a right angle is 3 2 ​ × 9 0 ∘ = 6 0 ∘ , also an acute angle.

Finding the missing angle in triangle PQR:

In any triangle, the sum of angles is 180°. Given angles are 30° and 50°. Let the missing angle be x .
3 0 ∘ + 5 0 ∘ + x = 18 0 ∘
x = 18 0 ∘ − 8 0 ∘ = 10 0 ∘
So, the missing angle is 100°.
