Types of angles (age 11+)
Use conventional geometric terms and notation to describe, sketch, and draw points, lines, parallel and perpendicular lines, right angles, regular polygons, and reflectively/rotationally symmetric polygons
Teaching approaches
Gakuva’s recommended starting approach is selected. You can still compare every option.
1 approach
If you ask your child to describe a triangle using proper geometry notation — naming its angles and sides with letters — can they do it clearly enough for someone else to draw it?
