A

Fluency & Practice

Answer all questions. Show your working in the grid spaces provided.
1.
If three angles at a point are 85° and 120°, find the size of the remaining angle.
[2 marks]
2.
Calculate the sum of four angles around a point if three are 95°, 110°, and 85°.
[3 marks]
3.
A full rotation is 360°. If an angle is 240°, what is its supplementary angle at the same point?
[2 marks]
B

Problem Solving & Reasoning

Answer all questions clearly, showing detailed working.
1.
A clock shows two hands forming an angle of 120°. If the minute hand has moved 20 minutes past the hour, what is the angle between the hour and minute hands?
[4 marks]
2.
On a circular table, three people sit so that the angles between them are 100°, 130°, and the remaining angle. Find the largest possible angle between two people sitting opposite each other.
[4 marks]
C

Real-world Applications

Solve the following contextual problems using your understanding of angles at a point.
1.
A bridge is constructed with multiple segments meeting at a joint. If four segments form angles of 90°, 85°, and 100° at the joint, what is the measure of the remaining angle needed for the angles to sum to 360°?
[2 marks]
2.
In a roundabout, three roads meet, forming angles of 110°, 130°, and an unknown angle. What is the measure of the unknown angle?
[2 marks]
D

Challenge & Extension

Attempt these advanced problems to extend your understanding.
1.
Construct an angle at a point where one angle is 150°, and the other two are equal. Calculate the measure of the equal angles.
[3 marks]
2.
A circular platform has three sections separated by angles of 80°, 110°, and the remaining section. Find the measure of the last section.
[2 marks]
E

Mixed Review

Answer a variety of questions to test your overall understanding of 360° at a point.
1.
If two angles at a point are 70° and 150°, what is the measure of the third angle?
[2 marks]
2.
A pie chart shows 3 sectors with angles of 90°, 150°, and an unknown sector. What is the angle of the unknown sector?
[2 marks]
F

Error Analysis

Review the common mistake and correct it.
1.
A student calculates an unknown angle at a point by subtracting the two known angles from 360°, but the answer they get is 235°. Identify the mistake and provide the correct answer.
[3 marks]
