- 1.Two straight lines cross at a point. Which statement about a pair of vertically opposite angles is always true?
- 2.A regular nonagon has 9 sides. Work out the sum of its interior angles.
- 3.Three angles lie on a straight line. They measure 38°, 95° and x°. Work out the value of x.
- 4.Two identical ladders lean against the same vertical wall from opposite sides, each making an angle of 58.2° with the ground. The two ladders and the ground form a triangle. Work out the size of the angle between the two ladders at the top, where they meet.
- 5.A straight transversal crosses a pair of parallel lines. At one crossing point, the angle between the transversal and a parallel line is 118°. Work out the size of the co-interior (allied) angle at the other crossing point.
- 6.A transversal crosses a pair of parallel lines. At one line, the angle is (5x + 4)°. The corresponding angle at the other line is (3x + 24)°. Work out the value of x.
- 7.Four angles meet at a point. Three of them measure 82°, 105° and 96°. Work out the size of the fourth angle.
- 8.A regular polygon has 12 sides. Work out the size of one exterior angle of the polygon.
- 9.Two angles are supplementary. One of them is twice the size of the other. Work out the size of the smaller angle.
- 10.The interior angles of a pentagon are 100°, 110°, 120°, x° and x°. Work out the size of each of the two angles marked x°.
- 11.A regular polygon has an exterior angle of 45°. Work out the number of sides of the polygon.
- 12.A conservatory has a roof panel shaped like a regular octagon. Work out the interior angle of the octagon, then use it to work out the size of the reflex angle at the same vertex, on the outside of the roof panel.
- 13.At a point on a straight line, two angles are formed. One of them is 63°. Work out the size of the other angle.
- 14.Two of the angles in a triangle are 50° and 70°. Work out the size of the third angle.
- 15.A regular polygon has an interior angle of 156°. Work out the number of sides of the polygon.
