Definition: Interior of an Angle

The interior of an angle is defined as the region or planar area that lies between the two rays (or "arms") that form the angle.

CISCE: Class 6

Definition: Exterior of an Angle

The interior of an angle is the region or planar area that lies between the two rays (or arms) that form the angle.

CISCE: Class 6

Angle Formation by Rotation

1. Starting Point

  • Take a ray OA (a line that starts at point O and goes in one direction).

  • Point O is called the vertex, and OA is the initial position of the ray.

2. Rotating the Ray

  • Now imagine the ray OA is rotating around its fixed endpoint O.

  • As it turns, it takes a new position — let’s call the new ray OA′.

3. Forming the Angle

  • The amount of turning or rotation between the initial position OA and the new position OA′ is called an angle.

  • This angle is written as ∠AOA′.

  • The space between OA and OA′ is the interior of the angle.

Formation of Different Angles

Illustration Measure / Range Illustration Measure / Range
Acute angle (< 90°) Right angle (90°)
Obtuse angle (> 90° but < 180°) Straight angle (180°)
Reflex angle (> 180° but < 360°) Three-right angles or 270°
Angle close to 360° (Reflex angle) Complete angle (360°)
