In this lesson, we will learn about this type of angle.

00:00:08.120
Let's take a look at this angle.

00:00:11.200
In the previous lesson, we learned that an obtuse angle is always more than 90 degrees, and less than 180 degrees.

00:00:20.210
What happens, when the angle becomes 180 degrees?

00:00:26.140
When the angle becomes 180 degrees, it is called a str. angle.

00:00:32.230
To emphasize, str. angle is an angle that is equals to 180 degrees.

00:00:40.090
Let's see some examples.

00:00:43.130
Is this a str. angle?

00:00:48.030
Yes! It is.

00:00:51.210
How about this angle?

00:00:55.140
Again, this is a str. angle.

00:00:59.240
Next example, is this a str. angle?

00:01:05.030
Clearly, this angle is not equals to 180 degrees.

00:01:10.160
Hence, this is not a str. angle

00:01:15.220
That is all for this lesson.
