Previously Published Data 

Students will note what is wrong with a quadrilateral that has angles of 30", 50", 140", and 100 degrees and change it so that it is correct. [It totals 320". Any changes to the angles to total 360" is correct.] 

Given a triangle with two angles of 90" and 50", 
students will find the size of the third angle.(40") 

Given a regular trapezoid 
 with bottom angles of 45" each, students will determine the sizes of the top two angles. (135"each) 

Students will draw a triangle with angles of 90", 700, 200. 

Students will draw a parallelogram where the bottom angles are 60" and 120" 



Previously Published Data 

Given a triangular plot of ground with angles of 500 and 28", 
students will determine the size of 
the third angle (102") and draw the triangle with the use of of protractor. 

Given trapezoid ABCD with 
angles of 90deg., 90 and 37deg. students will determine the size of angle C (1630) and draw the trapezoid with the use of a protractor. 

Given a parallelogram with one angle of 40", students will determine the sizes of the other angles (40, 140, and 140deg.) and draw the parallelogram with the use of a protractor.
