Which One Doesn’t Belong?

You will be shown four things; decide which one doesn’t belong.
Stand up, and move to the tables in the corner of the room that you
think doesn’t belong.
A front of room B

C back of room D

Discuss with the other people that agree with you why you think it
doesn’t belong, and be prepared to argue the case to the rest of the
class.

Key ideas
A point is labelled with a capital letter.

A line connecting two points, and is segment, 𝐴

and is named segment or .
𝐵
If it passes through the points, then it is called a line 𝐶
and extends indefinitely in both directions.

Points that lie on a single line (or segment) are collinear.

Key Ideas
If two lines meet, an intersection point is formed.

Three or more lines that intersect at the

same point are concurrent.
Key Ideas
A ray is part of a line with one end point and passing
through point , extending indefinitely. 𝐵
𝐴
Key Ideas
When two rays (or lines) meet, an angle is formed at the
intersection point, called the vertex.
arm

arm
The two rays are called arms of the angle.
Unique Geometry
Draw points on the page and label them , , , , and .
Join consecutive ( and , and , etc.) points with a line, ray or line
segment.

An angle measures turn. Here are some
example of different turns.
What type of turns do you see below?

Three quarters of a turn A full turn clockwise Half a turn clockwise A quarter of a turn
clockwise anticlockwise

Remember that the type of turns can be classified as:

A quarter of a turn, half a turn, three quarters of a turn, and a full turn,

as well as clockwise and anticlockwise

We use the following names for the different
types of angles Square symbol used for the right
angle, but no other angle.
What type of angle is this?
1. In pairs, cut out each of the headings
and angle measures.
2. Group the angles under their correct
headings.
Acute Angles

14 ° 54 °
2°
Right Angles

90 °
Obtuse Angles

104 ° 9 4 °
103 °
Straight Line

180 °
Reflex Angle

2 80 ° 325 °
2 05 ° 270 °
Full Turn

360 °
In your formula (or exercise) book:
• Write the heading: “Introducing Angles”
• Write the different types of angles as subheadings (Acute, Right,
Obtuse, Straight Line, Reflex, Full Turn
• Underneath each heading, write what size those angles can be
• Underneath that, paste in a diagram from the previous activity
• You may need to draw some since there is only one right, straight line, and
full turn example. Share with your partner.
