Because 360 degrees is a full circle. And you can't go any further

How do you list angles from smallest to largest?

Acute angles are greater than 0 but less than 90 degrees Right angles are 90 degrees Obtuse angles are greater than 90 but less than 180 degrees Reflex angles are greater than 180 but less than 360 degrees A full turn is 360 degrees


Can a triangle equal less than 180 degrees?

No because the three interior angles of any triangle always add up to 180 degrees.


What is an angle that measures more than 90 degrees but less than 180 degrees called?

An angle that measures more than 90 degrees but less than 180 degrees is called an "obtuse" angle. Note Angles less than 90 degrees are called "acute" angles. An angle that is exactly 90 degrees is called a "right" angle. Angles that are more than 90 degrees but less than 180 degrees are call "obtuse" angles. An angle that is exactly 180 degrees is called a "straight line". Angles that are more than 180 degrees and less than 360 degrees are called "reflex" angles.


Do supplementary angles always 90 degrees?

No. COMPLIMENTARY angles always add up to 90 degrees. SUPPLEMENTARY angles always add up to 180 degrees. you don't really have to know this stuff in later math, but for whatever course you're in right now it would be a vital error to mix them up. but if you are asking if every angle that is supplementary to another is 90 degrees by itself, the answer is still no. a supplementary can be any angle that is less than 180 degrees.


Find the measure of the complement of 25 degrees?

The complement to 25 degrees would be 65 because 25 + 65 = 90. Complementary angles are always equal to 90 degrees, no more, no less.
