The angles of a triangle total 180^o.

Position (Year 6)

In KS2 Maths, Year Six is when you get super good at playing with positions and directions! You'll know all about degrees and be a pro at spotting acute, obtuse, and right angles. Did you know a triangle has 180 degrees? Cool, right?

Now, let's talk about coordinates on a grid – it's like playing treasure hunt on a map! You'll learn how to describe where things are on the grid and even figure out what happens when you turn or flip shapes. It's like magic!

Knowing positions means reading coordinates, which are like secret codes for maps. Imagine being a map explorer! But, oh, figuring out new coordinates after turning a shape can be a bit tricky – like a puzzle you solve with a pencil and paper!

Test your brain with a fun quiz all about positions – let's see how much you remember from your super cool maths adventures!

What do we call two lines that cross one another?

Intersecting

Friends

Meeting

Crisscross

Intersecting lines meet but parallel lines never do

A shape has the coordinates (5,1) (1,4) (5,6) (9,4). What shape is it?

Square

Rectangle

Rhombus

Kite

It can be hard to imagine coordinates in your head. Drawing on some paper might help you to visualise the shape

A rectangle has the coordinates (2,2) (2,4) (6,4). What is the fourth coordinate?

(2,6)

(6,2)

(1,6)

(4,6)

This rectangle would have its longest sides at the top and bottom

If I turn 60^o how much more do I need to turn to complete one full turn?

100^o

200^o

300^o

400^o

360^o - 60^o = 300^o

What is the intersection?

The point where two angles meet

The point where two coordinates meet

The point where two shapes meet

The point where two lines meet

Where two roads meet it is also called an intersection

What is used to measure angles?

Ruler

Protractor

Tape measure

Compass

Most protractors are semi-circles divided into 180^o

If a triangle has a 60^o angle and a 40^o angle what angle is the third corner?

60^o

70^o

80^o

90^o

60^o + 40^o = 100^o so 180^o - 100^o = 80^o

What do the angles of a triangle total?

180^o

360^o

200^o

90^o

No matter what lengths its sides are or what shape it is, the angles in a triangle always add up to 180^o

What is the total size of the other two angles in a right angled triangle?

30^o

45^o

60^o

90^o

180^o - 90^o = 90^o so the other two angles must add up to that

10.

A triangle has the coordinates (1,1) (1,4) (4,1). What will the coordinates be after a quarter turn clockwise?

(1,1) (4,1) (1,-2)

(1,-1) (4,1) (1,-4)

(1,1) (4,1) (1,4)

(1,1) (4,1) (4,-4)

If you worked that out without drawing on some paper then very well done!
