wouldn't it be the 4th choice @jim_thompson5910

here's a straight line |dw:1360025477772:dw|

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

this has an angle measure of 180 degrees (ie it's a straight angle)

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

cut this into two pieces |dw:1360025509926:dw|

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

the two pieces must add back up to 180 for them to fit perfectly |dw:1360025531941:dw|

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

this works when you cut any straight angle into pieces
