A spur gear.
It is called a gear tooth. There can be many types of teeth based on the gear design; such as spur, helical, straight bevel, spiral bevel, hypoid, and several others.
Spur Gears: a gear having straight teeth cut on the rim parallel to the axis of rotation.Gears: a disk, wheel, or section of a shaft, having cut teeth of such form, size, and spacing that they mesh with teeth in another part to transmit or receive force and motion.***A spur gear is a type of gear***

Reverse gear is spur because it has to slide, sliding mesh gearbox uses spur gears. Because if it was constant mesh gear (helical) it could not slide in and out, therefore it could not go in the opposite direction of rotation.
Planetary gears can be spur or helical gears.
One of the most common types of gears is the Spur Gear. They are most round with teeth along the edging. Spur Gears are used in oscillating sprinklers or fans, windup clocks, washing machines and dyers.
the module of a helical gear is calculated in the same way of that of a spur gear: module=pitch diameter / no of teeth the module of a helical gear is calculated in the same way of that of a spur gear: module=pitch diameter / no of teeth
Spur gears give 180 degree drive, and worm gears give 90 degree drive.
Helical gears are similar to spur gear except it's teeth are slant. They have good load distribution, less noise and less wear compare to spur gear.
