Corresponding angles are a pair of angles at different vertices on the same side of a transversal in equivalent positions.

A pair of angles both between or both outside two line segments that are on opposite sides of the transversal that cuts them.

Co-interior angles are on the same side of the transversal line and in between the two other lines.

An interior angle is an angle formed inside a polygon by two of its edges.

An exterior angle is an angle on the outside of a polygon between an extension of an edge and its adjacent edge.

Maths

This unit gives pupils the opportunity to explore polygons and begin to generalise their understanding of interior/exterior angles in regular polygons. In the future unit, pupils will use the geometrical properties of a rhombus to perform various constructions

In this unit, pupils learnt how to calculate with angles at a point and angles on a straight line. In this unit, pupils extend their knowledge about angles in lines

Geometrical properties: polygons

Angles on the same side of the transversal line and in between the two other lines are called {{}} angles.

Which algebraic statement correctly expresses $$y$$ in terms of $$x$$?

The size of the angle marked in the diagram is {{}}°.

Match each pair of angles with the keywords that describe the relationship between them.

A dodecagon has 12 sides. Find the sum of the interior angles in a dodecagon.

Exterior angles for any polygon sum to {{}}°.

Each exterior angle for a regular hexagon is {{}}°.

Each interior angle in a regular octagon is {{}}°.

The pentagon and hexagon in the diagram are both regular. The angle marked in the diagram is {{}}°.
