Why am I learning this?

Mathematicians are not the people who find Maths easy; they are the people who enjoy how mystifying, puzzling and hard it is. Are you a mathematician?

Comment recorded on the 9 October 'Starter of the Day' page by Mr Jones, Wales:

"I think that having a starter of the day helps improve maths in general. My pupils say they love them!!!"

Comment recorded on the 18 September 'Starter of the Day' page by Mrs. Peacock, Downe House School and Kennet School:

"My year 8's absolutely loved the "Separated Twins" starter. I set it as an optional piece of work for my year 11's over a weekend and one girl came up with 3 independant solutions."

Go Maths

Learning and understanding Mathematics, at every level, requires learner engagement. Mathematics is not a spectator sport. Sometimes traditional teaching fails to actively involve students. One way to address the problem is through the use of interactive activities and this web site provides many of those. The Go Maths page is an alphabetical list of free activities designed for students in Secondary/High school.

Level 3 - Introducing angles with parallel lines and in in polygons

Level 4 - Including angles in circles

Level 5 - Mixed questions

Angle Chase - Use knowledge and reasoning to fill in the angles on the geometrical diagrams.

Exam Style Questions - A collection of problems in the style of GCSE or IB/A-level exam paper questions (worked solutions are available for Transum subscribers).

More Angles Resources including lesson Starters, visual aids, investigations and self-marking exercises.

More Focussed Exercises

Angle Points - on a line, vertically opposite and angles at a point

Angles in a Triangle - scalene, isosceles and equilateral

Angles in a Polygon - interior and exterior

Angle Parallels - alternate and corresponding

Curriculum Reference

See the National Curriculum page for links to related online activities and resources.

Example

The video above focusses on the angles in a triangle. You will also need to know the other Angle Theorems.

Angles at a point

The sum of the angles that fit around a point is 360°.

a° + b° + c° = 360°

Angles at a point

Angles on a straight line

The sum of the angles that fit on a straight line 180°.

a° + b° = 180°

Angles on a straight line

Vertically opposite angles

Where two straight lines cross vertically opposite angles are equal.

a = b

Vertically opposite angles

Alternate angles

This diagram shows pairs of alternate angles which are equal

Alternate angles

Corresponding angles

This diagram shows pairs of corresponding angles which are equal

Corresponding angles

A reminder of the Circle Theorems here.
