Student’s Book
Section A
• Let’s Learn

b. Angle y is greater than 180º. It is a/an reflex angle.
Angle y is greater than angle x.

1a. Tick boxes c and d.
b. TWM.03 Characterising
A reflex angle is greater than a straight line but less than 360°.

2a. q, r, p

3.
Acute Angle c, d, f, g
Obtuse Angle a, b, k
Right Angle j, h
Reflex Angle e, i

4. Yes, Zoe is right. An acute, obtuse, or right angle can form 360° with a reflex angle.

Section B
• Let’s Learn
Page 61
a. They form a straight line.
b. 180° – 42° = 138°
Angle m is 138°.

• Let’s Practise
Page 62: Let’s Practise
1. a. Angle a = 39°
b. Angle b = 23°

2. a. No
b. Yes

3. TWM.07 Critiquing
Malik is incorrect. Angle s is 2 parts. Angle t is three times of angle s so angle t is 6 parts. There should be 9
total parts. Malik counted 6 total parts instead of 9.
angle r = 180° ÷ 9 = 20°
angle s = 20° × 2 = 40°

Section C
• Let’s Learn
Page 65
b. An isosceles triangle has 2 equal sides, 2 equal angles, and 1 line of symmetry.
An equilateral triangle has 3 equal sides, 3 equal angles, and 3 lines of symmetry.

5. a. TWM.04 Convincing
Eddy’s statement is false as the triangular tiles are isosceles triangles. The triangles have 2 identical sides and
are hence, isosceles triangles. Also, triangles with a right angle can have 2 angles of the same size, hence,
they can be isosceles triangles.

b. TWM.08 Improving
He should use tile B on the 150 cm long wall and tile A on the 180 cm long wall. For the tiles to fit well, the
length and height of the wall must be multiples of the length and height of the tiles. The sides of tile B multiply
to give the length and height of the 150 cm long wall, whereas, the sides of tile A multiply to give the length and
height of the 180 cm long wall.
