Question. 25
The number of straight angles in Fig. 2.17 is ____.

Answer:
2
Detailed Answer with Explanation:
Think: A straight angle looks like a straight line.
By definition:
\(\text{Straight angle} = 180^\circ\).In the figure, points A–O–C lie on one straight line.
So, \(\angle AOC = 180^\circ\).
Hence, \(\angle AOC\) is a straight angle.Points B–O–D lie on another straight line.
So, \(\angle BOD = 180^\circ\).
Hence, \(\angle BOD\) is a straight angle.Counting straight angles:
\(\angle AOC\) and \(\angle BOD\) → total \(2\).
