As the s-character of hybridized orbitals decreases the bond angle also decreases. In sp^{3} hybridisation: s-character  \frac{1}{4}, bond angle 109^{o} . In sp^{2} hybridisation:
s-character \frac{1}{3}, bond angle 120^{o} . In sp hybridisation: s-character \frac{1}{2}, bond angle 180^{o} .
Hence, option number (1) is correct
