Step-by-step solution for: Missing Angles - Year 6 Maths Worksheet | Teach Starter
To solve the missing angles in the given worksheet, we need to use basic geometric principles such as:
1. Sum of angles around a point: The sum of all angles around a point is \(360^\circ\).
2. Sum of angles on a straight line: The sum of angles on a straight line is \(180^\circ\).
3. Sum of angles in a triangle: The sum of the interior angles in a triangle is \(180^\circ\).
4. Right angle: A right angle measures \(90^\circ\).
Let's solve each problem step by step.
---

- The diagram shows a right angle (\(90^\circ\)) and another angle (\(20^\circ\)).
- The missing angle \(x\) can be found using the fact that the sum of angles on a straight line is \(180^\circ\):
\[
x + 90^\circ + 20^\circ = 180^\circ
\]
\[
x + 110^\circ = 180^\circ
\]
\[
x = 70^\circ
\]
Answer for Problem 1: \(x = 70^\circ\)
---

- The diagram shows an angle of \(140^\circ\) and a missing angle \(x\).
- These two angles are on a straight line, so their sum is \(180^\circ\):
\[
x + 140^\circ = 180^\circ
\]
\[
x = 40^\circ
\]
Answer for Problem 2: \(x = 40^\circ\)
---

- The diagram shows a right triangle with angles \(30^\circ\) and \(60^\circ\).
- The sum of the angles in a triangle is \(180^\circ\). The missing angle \(x\) can be found as:
\[
x + 30^\circ + 60^\circ = 180^\circ
\]
\[
x + 90^\circ = 180^\circ
\]
\[
x = 90^\circ
\]
Answer for Problem 3: \(x = 90^\circ\)
---

- The diagram shows a right angle (\(90^\circ\)) and two other angles (\(15^\circ\) and \(10^\circ\)).
- The missing angle \(x\) can be found using the fact that the sum of angles around a point is \(360^\circ\):
\[
x + 90^\circ + 15^\circ + 10^\circ = 360^\circ
\]
\[
x + 115^\circ = 360^\circ
\]
\[
x = 245^\circ
\]
Answer for Problem 4: \(x = 245^\circ\)
---

- The diagram shows a right triangle with one angle \(25^\circ\) and another angle \(x\).
- The sum of the angles in a triangle is \(180^\circ\). The missing angle \(x\) can be found as:
\[
x + 25^\circ + 90^\circ = 180^\circ
\]
\[
x + 115^\circ = 180^\circ
\]
\[
x = 65^\circ
\]
Answer for Problem 5: \(x = 65^\circ\)
