What’s your AngleNoise Level 1

MA.5.4.1 2000 Measure, identify, and draw angles, perpendicular and parallel lines, rectangles, triangles and circles by using appropriate tools

1. Listen to leader read directions for task.2. Lay pictures out on the table.3. With a partner, look at each picture and measure the

angle of the designated limb.4. You might need to reenact some of the angles to get a

better measurement.5. Fill out the Angles Report and turn into proper bin.6. Clean up area and return station items to proper

location.Extension Activity: Think of other angles you might use doing sports and add to the bottom of the Angles Report.

y = 5x + 3 - 2

y = 6(x + 1) – 10

y = x/2 + 5

y = 10 + 2(x – x) + 4

15 – x + (3 * 1) = y

10 + 1 – (4* x) = y

(4 + x) – (4 + x) = y

8 * 2 + x – 5 = y

y = (2*x) – (1*x) 2

y = x

y = 3x

y = x + x - 4

2

y = x – (3*x)

y = 10 – x + 2x

y = x*x 2

y = 4 + x – 1

(3 + x) * (x – 5) = y 2

x + 1 = y 2

(x + 1) – (3*7) = y

2(x) + -5 = y

(5 + x) * (8 – x) = y

3x – (4*5) = y 3 2

5 - x + 0 = y

10 – x + (3*2)- x = y
