Wait, did they say 45 degrees? Isn't that the angle for an intradermal injection? I'm pretty sure that's the right answer.

This is a trick question, isn't it? I bet the answer is intravenous, just to throw us off!

C'mon, it's gotta be intramuscular. Isn't that the one where you go in at a 45-degree angle? I thought that was the standard for IM injections.

I remember learning that A) intradermal injections are given at a 10-15 degree angle, so I think the answer is C) intramuscular.

Hmm, I thought intramuscular was the one where you inject at an angle. But maybe I'm mixing that up with something else.

I'm not sure, but I think it might be B) subcutaneous because those are given at a 45 degree angle.

I agree with Socorro, because intramuscular injections are given at a 90 degree angle.

I'm pretty sure it's subcutaneous. That's the one where you inject at an angle, right?

And intravenous injections are given directly into the vein, so it's definitely not that one.

Intramuscular injections are given at a 90 degree angle, so it's not that one either.

Yes, you're correct! Subcutaneous injections are given at a 45 degree angle.
