No. Given two points on a circle, the minor arc is the shortest arc linking them. The major arc is the longest.
An angle of 180 degrees is a straight line.
An acute angle is lower than 90 degrees. An obtuse angle is higher than 90 degrees. But lower than 180 degrees. A right angle is exactly 90 degrees. A straight angle is exactly 180 degrees. A reflex angle is higher than 180 degrees. A Circle is exactly 360 degrees.
A major arc is a portion of a circle that is greater than 180 degrees. Its measure is calculated as the difference between 360 degrees and the measure of the corresponding minor arc. Therefore, if a minor arc measures, for example, 120 degrees, the major arc would measure 240 degrees. In summary, a major arc's measure is always greater than 180 degrees and less than 360 degrees.
If they're less than 180 degrees, they're obtuse angles. If more than 180 degrees, they're reflex angles. (Exactly 180 degrees is a 'straight' angle.)
180 degrees is exactly half of a circle: thus a straight line.
An angle whose measure is exactly 180 degrees is a straight angle.
An angle of 180 degrees is a straight line.
Yes.
less than 180 degrees
An arc whose measure is less than 180 degrees is called a Minor Arc.
a minor arc measures less than 180 degrees...
An acute angle is lower than 90 degrees. An obtuse angle is higher than 90 degrees. But lower than 180 degrees. A right angle is exactly 90 degrees. A straight angle is exactly 180 degrees. A reflex angle is higher than 180 degrees. A Circle is exactly 360 degrees.
Part of the circumference of a circle less than 180 degrees
An angle with a measure of 180 degrees will look like a straight line with the vertex being a point in the center. Since a complete circle is 360 degrees, opening an angle to 180 degrees traces out exactly half a circle.
If they're less than 180 degrees, they're obtuse angles. If more than 180 degrees, they're reflex angles. (Exactly 180 degrees is a 'straight' angle.)
180 degrees is exactly half of a circle: thus a straight line.
