Worksheet Overview

What can you remember about angle rules?

You might not recall them all, but there are probably some that you already know.

 

Here are the most important ones to remember:

 

right angle is 90º

The angles inside a triangle add up to 180º

The angles around a point add up to 360º

straight line angle is 180º

 

These other ones involve remembering some names too!

An acute angle is less than 90º

Easy to remember because 'a cute' kitten is very small!

An obtuse angle is between 90º and 180º

A reflex angle is between 180º and 360º

 

How many of those did you already know?
