Measuring angles
You use a protractor to measure angles accurately.
Follow these instructions carefully.
1 Estimate the angle first, so you don’t mistake an angle
of 30°, say, for an angle of 150°.
2 Put the centre point of the protractor exactly on top of
the point of the angle.
3 Place one of the 0° lines of the protractor directly on
top of one of the angle ‘arms’.
If the line isn’t long enough, draw it longer so that it
reaches beyond the edge of the protractor.
4 Measure from the 0°, following the scale round the edge
of the protractor.
If you are measuring from the left-hand 0°, use the
outside scale.
If you are measuring from the right-hand 0°, use the
inside scale.
5 On the correct scale, read the size of the angle in Use your estimate to help you
degrees, where the other ‘arm’ cuts the edge of the choose the correct scale.

Polygons
A polygon is a 2-dimensional shape with many sides and
angles.
Here are some of the most common ones.
Pentagon (5 sides) Hexagon (6 sides) Octagon (8 sides)
A polygon with all of its sides the same length and all of
its angles equal is called regular.
You can use this equation to work out the number of sides
in a regular polygon.
