The correct answer is
remains the same

Angle Measure Fundamentals

An angle is formed by two rays (called arms) sharing a common endpoint, the vertex. The measure of the angle quantifies the amount of rotation between these two rays.

Impact of Extending Angle Arms

Consider an angle $\theta$. Its measure is determined solely by the relative orientation of its two arms originating from the vertex.

  • Extending the length of an arm means making the ray longer, starting from the vertex.
  • This extension does not alter the direction or inclination of the ray itself.
  • Since the relative orientation between the two arms remains unchanged, the angle's measure ($\theta$) is unaffected.

Therefore, even if an arm of an angle is extended to double its length, the measure of the angle remains the same.

Correct Answer: Option 4, remains the same.
