Description

Though angles can be tricky things, this rap about the topic brings an easy method showing you just what the angles add up to. Join Sergio as he plays pool and helps the students in your school to find, to calculate, and see the angles, to the nth degree.

Vocabulary Words

complementary angles
supplementary angles
vertical angles
adjacent angles
right angle
obtuse
acute

Instructions

Play through this interactive game to learn about Solve Equations Using Angle Measures. Suitable for Grade 6, Grade 7, Grade 8.

Main Concepts

Types of angles are right = exactly 90 degrees, acute = less than 90 degrees, and obtuse = greater than 90 degrees.
Use facts about complementary angles in a multi-step problem to write and solve simple equations for an unknown angle in a figure.
Use facts about supplementary angles in a multi-step problem to write and solve equations for an unknown angle in a figure.
Adjacent angles are two angles that have a common vertex and a common side. 
When an angle is right (exactly 90 degrees), the lines that form the angle are perpendicular.
Write equations to solve for unknown angles.
Solve equations for unknown angles using knowledge of angle measures.

Discussion Questions

Before the Game

How can we tell if two angles are adjacent? What is the relationship between two angles who add up to 180 degrees? What is the difference between acute, obtuse, and right triangles? What are complementary angles? What are corresponding angles? What are supplementary angles?

After the Game

How did you figure out which angle Sergio needed to hit the cue ball at to make the shot? What is the difference between an acute angle and an obtuse angle? What is the difference between corresponding angles, complementary angles, and supplementary angles? In the game you were practicing angles playing a game of pool - can you think of another real-world example where you might use angles?
