Pupils use rectangle facts to find missing lengths and angles in this Year 5 maths recap. A quick check asks for a missing side and an angle, then written questions get pupils sharing their top tip, drawing their own missing-angle puzzle for the teacher to solve, and noting a question they still have. Answers are included. It practises three England National Curriculum angle and rectangle objectives.
Geometry - properties of shapes
“Use the properties of rectangles to deduce related facts and find missing lengths and angles”
The quick check applies this objective directly to labelled diagrams.
Geometry - properties of shapes
“Identify angles at a point on a straight line and ½ a turn (total 180°)”
Angle deductions in the sheet lean on the 180° fact.
Fill-in questions on a missing side length and the size of a marked angle.
Pupils explain their method and say which question was trickier and why.
Pupils draw a missing-angle puzzle for the teacher to solve.
One question pupils still have about rectangles, angles or lengths.
Answers at the end of the sheet.
