D
Obtuse angle
Verified step by step guidance1
Recall the definitions of angle types based on their measures: an acute angle is between 0° and 90°, a right angle is exactly 90°, an obtuse angle is between 90° and 180°, and a reflex angle is between 180° and 360°.
Identify the given angle measure, which is 154°.
Compare 154° with the angle type ranges: since 154° is greater than 90° but less than 180°, it falls within the range of an obtuse angle.
Conclude that the angle measuring 154° is classified as an obtuse angle.
Note that this classification is based on the angle's measure relative to the standard angle categories.
