having at least one (plug-in) prong 90 deg to the other, sometines two of the prongs. This type is usually found in a utility room for dryers, most of which use 220 power.

To safely connect a 220-volt dryer to a 110-volt outlet, you cannot directly plug it in, as the voltage and amperage requirements are different. Instead, you should consult a licensed electrician to either install a dedicated 220-volt outlet or use a transformer that can convert the voltage appropriately.
