acute angle
This and reflex angle and obtuse angle were all deleted 4 years ago. The discussion that was had was, IMHO, somewhat weak, and perhaps a fresh discussion is needed to restore these terms. --Type56op9 (talk) 17:49, 27 September 2014 (UTC)


 * Why is it not covered by sense 4 of acute? I suppose we have acute triangle, so we should be consistent.    D b f  i  r  s   18:15, 27 September 2014 (UTC)


 * Restore both as set phrases: the definitions of "acute" and "obtuse" that apply to angles are not the most common definitions of acute and obtuse. Pur ple back pack 89  21:34, 27 September 2014 (UTC)


 * Everyone apparently wanted to keep prime number (a number that is prime), and this seems entirely analogous. But my view is delete as SoP, or redirect to "acute" etc. Equinox ◑ 00:24, 28 September 2014 (UTC)


 * Keep (restore) "acute angle" and "obtuse angle", now as before per talk:free variable: "acute" in that sense predominantly applies to angles; for the previous RFD discussion, see Talk:obtuse angle. Let me note that "acute angle" is at AHD, Collins, and Macmillan. Furthermore, whether Talk:obtuse_angle was closed regularly is questionable, IMHO. --Dan Polansky (talk) 07:42, 28 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep reflex angle as well; shows it in AHD and Macmillan. --Dan Polansky (talk) 19:14, 30 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Restore and keep. --Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 23:41, 28 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Restore and keep per inclusion of these terms in other dictionaries. bd2412 T 00:39, 29 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep (already restored?. Norwegian just entered. Donnanz (talk) 10:30, 30 September 2014 (UTC)
 * I restored it because it was deleted out of process, before the discussion is over. --Anatoli T. (обсудить/вклад) 06:28, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
 * 'Keep. Obviously, this term belongs to the mathematical vocabulary, it's a term of the language. Lmaltier (talk) 17:50, 10 October 2014 (UTC)
