I'm not sure if you mean types or how to name them, so I'll give you both!

How to Name: This is fairly simple. You can either put a letter or a number near the angle if it is drawn. If you need to write it, just put either

Types: Now this is where it gets trickier. If it's an angle that is less than 90 degrees, it would be an Acuteangle. If it's larger than 90 degrees, it would be an Obtuseangle. If it is exactly 90, it would be a Right angle.

Now say you have two perpendicular lines (making four right angles). The angle opposite to the position of another one would be Vertical. Adjacent angles are self-explanitory; they're two angles that are side-by-side, or adjacent. Complementaryangles are adjacent angles that, when the degrees are added together, equal 90 degrees. Supplemetary angles have the same concept, but add up to 180 degrees instead of 90.

That's the basics of it all. Hope this helps!
