EED Angles > 13.1 Measuring and drawing angles a Measure the size of angle x. fs b Draw an angle of 135° Place your protractor over angle x so that the centre of your protractor is at the point of your angle. Make sure the horizontal arm of your angle is lined up exactly with 0° As the angle opens clockwise, use the numbers on the outside circle. x= 60° 167 >13 Angles > Start by drawing a horizontal line. Place the centre of your protractor on the right end of the line, with the left end of the line at 0°. Measure 135° clockwise, using the outside numbers. Mark a small line at this point. Now take away the protractor and join your mark to the right end of the horizontal line. Draw an angle arc and write 135° onto your diagram.

Challenge Yq 7 The diagram shows a ski jump ramp. You may need to extend the arms of angle y to measure it accurately with your protractor. In a competition, the angle marked x must be between 36° and 38°, and the angle marked y must be between 7° and 12°. Can this ramp be used in a competition? Use specialising to explain your answer. 173 >13 Angles > QqY 8 a Measure the size of angles a, b and c in this diagram. 174 > Explain why the angles should add up to 360°. Use this fact to check your accuracy. Angle b is three times the size of angle a. Use this fact to check your accuracy. Write down the missing whole numbers in these statements: i angle cis _____times the size of angle b. ii angle cis ___times the size of angle a.13.1 Measuring and drawing angles 9 The diagram shows two triangles.
