You measure an obtuse angle on a protractor. If neither of the rays of the angle points at 0° or 180°, where could they point? Give the two points using degrees and explain why you chose those points.

Answer:

173-degree angle (any angle larger than 90 degrees is obtuse and why are there favorite numbers all of a sudden????)

145-degree angle (there really is no reason to choose 2 certain numbers)

Explanation:

any angle larger than 90 degrees is obtuse, so there you go my children.

Answer:

Any point greater Than 0 and less than 180°

Explanation:

Obtuse angle measures are angles which measures angles in the range between 0° and 180°. Angles which lies between these range are called obtuse angles. Hence, from the question, if the ray of points measured does not point to 0° or 180°; then, the ray of angle points could have pointed to any angle between greater Than Zero less than 180.

Hence the points could 10 and 120 or any other values which meets the obtuse angle condition.
