Is there a way to insert images into multiple choice answers?
I think this could be very useful for Math and also for younger learners who are still emerging readers, as well as second language students.
So if the question, for instance, is "Which of these angles is acute?" I can have the students choose between various pictures of angles?
Thanks in advance.

Yes. Multiple choice questions are one of the types that support the Rich Content Editor (RCE) and with that you can insert images.
In Classic Quizzes, you click on the pencil on the right of the answer to enter RCE mode. This lesson from the Canvas Instructor Guide provides more information: https://community.canvaslms.com/docs/DOC-26474-how-do-i-create-a-multiple-choice-quiz-question
In New Quizzes, you are already in the RCE when you start to type an answer. The RCE in New Quizzes is different than in the RCE in Classic Quizzes (and everywhere else in Canvas)
