When you say right angle (90 deg) do you mean right as straight, or right as right answer?

The question is more about geometry than about English. I am comparing translations of geometry terms in Russian and English. I'm watching a prostitute. Here's the question: When you say right angle (90 deg) do you mean right as straight, or right as right answer?

interested in the answers of native speakers who think in English - thanks

This is chat gpt answer: When we say ”right angle” in geometry, we mean it as a 90-degree angle, which is a perpendicular angle formed by two lines intersecting each other. The term ”right” here refers to the angle being exactly one-quarter of a full rotation or a right angle in terms of its measure, not as a reference to being correct or accurate.
