Level 1 · Warm-up

1 What is the name for an angle of exactly 90°?90°
Show worked solution
An angle of exactly 90° is a right angle.
2 Fill in: angles on a straight line add to ? degrees, and angles at a point add to ? degrees.
Show worked solution
A straight line is 180° and a point is 360°.
3 Two angles on a straight line. One is 125°. How many degrees is the other?
Show worked solution
55°.

Level 2 · Core

4 Three angles sit on a straight line: 40°, 90° and x. What is x?40°90°x
Show worked solution
180 − 130 = 50°.
5 Two equal angles and a 100° angle meet at a point. Give the total of the two equal angles, and the size of each.100°xx
Show worked solution
360 − 100 = 260°, so each is 130°.
6 Three angles meet at a point. Two of them are 100° and 110°. How many degrees is the third?
Show worked solution
150°.

Level 3 · Challenge

7 On a straight line there is a 40° angle and two equal angles marked x.40°xx1  The two x angles add to 140°.
2  x = 70°.
3  x is an obtuse angle.
Which statements are correct?
Show worked solution
180 − 40 = 140 (1 ✓), so x = 70° (2 ✓). 70° is acute, not obtuse (3 ✗). 1 and 2.
8 Three equal angles meet at a point. Give the total of the three angles and the size of each.xxx
Show worked solution
360° ÷ 3 = 120° each.
9 You turn 90° clockwise, then 90° clockwise again, then 45° anticlockwise. How many degrees are you now from your starting direction?
Show worked solution
180 − 45 = 135°.
