Maths Y08 Spr1 Flashcards
1.0 Degree
Unit of angle measurement. Symbol is °
1.1 Acute
Refers to an angle less than 90°
1.2 Right Angle
An angle of 90°. Corresponding to a quarter turn
1.3 Obtuse
An angle more than 90° but less than 180°
1.4 Straight Line
An angle of 180°. Corresponding to half a turn
1.5 Reflex
An angle greater than 180° and less than 360°
1.6 Full Turn (Circle)
Entire rotation is 360°. Corresponding to a full turn
1.7 Vertically opposite
Angles opposite each other when two lines cross – they are equal in size.
2 Parallel Lines
Two straight lines that never meet and stay the same distance away from each other throughout their entire length
2.1 Transversal
The third line which crosses the two parallel lines
2.2 Alternate
A pair of angles on the inner side of each of the parallel line and the transversal, but on opposite sides of the transversal are equal
2.3 Corresponding
The angles in matching corners made when the transversal crosses the two parallel lines corresponding angles are equal size
2.4 Co-Interior
Angles that lie between the two parallel lines on the same side of the transversal. The two angles sum to 180°
3.0 Polygon
A 2D shape having more than three straight sides
3.1 Regular Polygon
A polygon with all equal side lengths and all equal size interior and exterior angles
3.2 Interior Angle
Is an angle on the inside of the shape, made between two of the sides
3.3 Exterior Angle
Is an angle on the outside of the shape when the side lines are extended (360 ÷ n where n is the number of sizes)
3.4 Sum of interior Angles
(n – 2) x 180° where n is the number of sides
3.5 Individual Interior Angle
((n – 2) x 180°)/2 where n is the number of sides. Each individual interior angle is the same size
3.6 Sum of exterior Angle
All the exterior angles total 360°
3.01 3 Sides
Equilateral Triangle
3.02 4 Sides
Square
3.03 5 Sides
Pentagon
3.04 6 Sides
Hexagon
