Example cards from this pack
Angles on a straight line add up to how many degrees?
Answer: 180 degrees.
Why it matters: A straight line forms half a full turn.
Memory tip: A straight line is half a turn, so use 180.
Angles around a point add up to how many degrees?
Answer: 360 degrees around a point.
Why it matters: A full turn is 360 degrees.
Memory tip: Around a point is a full turn, so use 360.
Why do vertically opposite angles have the same size?
Answer: Because each one is supplementary to the same neighbouring angle, so the two opposite angles must be equal.
Why it matters: When two lines cross, opposite angles match in size.
Memory tip: Opposite crossing angles match because they share the same straight-line partners.
Where this fits
- Use it before circle theorems so line, point and polygon angle facts are already quick to recall.
- Pair it with area and perimeter when geometry questions mix diagrams, reasoning and calculation.
- Revisit it before proof-style questions because the angle fact is often easy but the explanation needs practice.
