Fascinating Fact:

Eight equal slices mean each central angle is 360 ÷ 8 = 45°. Halve the slices and each slice’s angle doubles.

In GCSE Maths (Foundation), angle facts help you find unknowns quickly. Use rules for straight lines (180°), around a point (360°), triangles (180°), and vertically opposite angles (equal).

  • Complementary angles: Two angles that add to 90°.
  • Supplementary angles: Two angles that add to 180°.
  • Vertically opposite angles: Equal angles made by two crossing lines.
What are the basic angle rules for GCSE Foundation?

Key rules: straight line totals 180°, around a point totals 360°, triangle totals 180°, and vertically opposite angles are equal.

How do I find a missing angle on a straight line?

Add the known angles and subtract from 180°. For example, if one angle is 112°, the adjacent angle is 180° − 112° = 68°.

What is a right angle and how many degrees is it?

A right angle is the corner of a square. It measures exactly 90° and is shown by a small square at the vertex.
