What's a right angle?

A right angle is an angle that measures exactly 90 degrees. It is one of the basic types of angles in geometry and represents a quarter turn or a perpendicular intersection of two lines. Right angles are often denoted by a small square placed in the angle's corner. They are a fundamental aspect of many geometric figures and constructions.
