Vertically Opposite Angles - Student Reference Card
This student reference card is designed to be glued into student books to remind them of how they can use maths to discover missing angles using vertically opposite angles.
This resource is part of a comprehensive unit on angles for Year 6 teachers to engage students in understanding the relationships between angles on a straight line, angles at a point, and vertically opposite angles.
Learning goals
- We are learning to identify, measure, estimate and compare angles on a straight line, angle at a point and vertically opposite angles to find unknown angles.
- We are learning to identify, measure, estimate and compare angles on a straight line, angles at a point and vertically opposite angles to find unknown angles.
