Geometry: Angles & Triangles
Angle rules, types of triangle, and why the angles always total 180°.
What this lesson covers
Geometry: Angles & Triangles is a 10-part Class 6 Mathematics lesson. Each part makes one point and then hands over to the next, so it can be read in a sitting or picked up again at the part you stopped on. It defines the idea in plain words before using it, works through an example step by step, breaks the topic into its parts and compares them, shows where it is used outside the textbook, names the mistakes that cost marks in an exam, ends with a recap of what to remember.
How it begins
An angle measures turn, in degrees. Acute: less than 90° Right: exactly 90° Obtuse: between 90° and 180° Straight: 180° Reflex: between 180° and 360° Reflex angles are the ones people forget: the "outside" of a corner is an angle too.
