Measuring angles (age 9+)

测量角度(9岁以上)

Description

Recognise angle measure as additive; find unknown angles by adding or subtracting on a diagram using equations with a symbol for the unknown

Mastery Evidence
  • Two angles on a straight line are 65° and x°; find x = 115°
  • An angle is decomposed into 35° and 40°; state the whole angle is 75°
  • Solve: angles at a point are 120°, 90°, and x°; find x = 150°
Assessment Prompt

If two angles sit next to each other on a straight line and one is 65°, can your child work out the other angle — knowing that angles on a straight line always add up to 180°?
