Having trouble remembering these geometry terms?
An acute angle is less than 90 degrees. Remember "a cute little angle" or an "acute" pain is a sharp one, like this angle with a sharp point to it.
A right angle fits "right" into a corner of exactly 90 degrees.
An obtuse angle is one over 90 degrees, but under 180 degrees. This angle has a blunt or an obtuse point, which would even glance "off twos", which are known to be easy to divide or pierce!
A straight angle is exactly 180 degrees and is just a "straight" line.
A reflex angle is one over 180 degrees. Think of this like a broken angle. If you "reflex" your arm backwards at the elbow, you will break it.

angles less than 90 degrees are acute, more than 90 degrees is obtuse.
Hope this helps
