Class 6 Lines and Angles
Class 6 Lines and Angles
1. Find the degree measures of the following angles using your protractor.
2. Find the degree measures of different angles in your classroom using your protractor.
3. Find the degree measures for the angles given below check if your paper protractor can be
used here
4. How can you find the degree measure of the angle given below using a protractor?
5. Measure and write the degree measures for each of the following angles:
6. Find the degree measure of ∠BXE, ∠CXE, ∠AXB and ∠BXC.
8. Make the paper craft as per the given instructions. Then, unfold and open the paper fully.
Draw lines on the creases mad and measure the angles formed.
9. Measure all three angles of the triangle shown in fig. (a) and write the measures down near
the respective angles. Now add up the three measures. What do you get? Do the same for the
triangle in fig (b) and (c). try it for other triangles as well, and then make a conjecture for
what happens in general we will come back to why this happens in a later year.
3. vidya is enjoying her time on the swing. She notices that the greater the angle with which
she starts the swinging, the greater is the speed she achieves on her swing. But where is the
angle? Are you able to see any angle?
4. Here is a toy with slanting slabs attached to its sides; the greater the angles or slopes of the
slabs, the faster the balls roll. Can angles be used to describe the slopes of the slabs? What are
the arms of each angel? Which arm is visible and which is not?
5. Observe the images below where there is an insect and its rotated version. Can angles be
used to describe the amount of rotation? How? What will be the arms of the angle and the
vertex? (Hint: observe the horizontal line touching the insects)
7. Puzzle: I am an acute angle. If you double my measure, you get an acute angle. If you
triple my measure, you will get an acute angle again. If you quadruple (four times) my
measure, you will get an acute angle yet again but if you multiply my measure by 5, you will
get an obtuse angle measure. What are the possibilities for my measure?
