Complementary Angles (1)

Overview:

A worksheet designed for upper years students to practise their knowledge of complementary angles. The activity involves calculating the missing angles when given one of the complementary angles in a pair. This helps students strengthen their understanding of how angles add up to 90°.

Learning Objectives:

• Understand the concept of complementary angles.
• Calculate missing angles in complementary angle pairs.
• Develop problem-solving skills by using known angle measures to find unknown angles.

How the Activity Works:

Students are provided with pairs of angles where one angle is given, and they need to calculate the missing angle that completes the pair to 90°. They will use their understanding of complementary angles (angles that add up to 90°) to work out the missing angles. The activity encourages students to apply their knowledge in a practical way to solve angle-related problems.
