How do you use a protractor to measure angles?
put the protractor on the vertex and look up at the degree's and look belowacute angle =has a measure between 0 degree's and 90 degree'sright angle =has a measure of 90 degree'sobtuse angle = has a measure between 90 degree's and 180 degree'sstraight angle = has a measure of 180 degree'sthat's how you use a protractor to measure angles.
