Complementary Angles With Decimals

Written by Adi Ackerman, Head Teacher

"Complementary Angles With Decimals" is written for 7th Grade (Ages 12-13), and it covers Common Core 7.G.B.5. A 6th grader who is already steady on geometry can use it too, and an older student can use it as a short review.

Complementary Angles With Decimals

7th grade math worksheet: find complements of decimal angles such as 33.5° and 41.25°, including angles written with a variable. Answer key included. Part of our angle relationships geometry collection. Aligned to Common Core standards.

How do I use this worksheet?

Start with Name Angle Pairs in Line Diagrams, then go through the single equation sheets before the expression sheets. Keep the reference or guided notes next to students as they work.

What students will practice

  • Students will find the complement of an angle given as a decimal.
  • Students will use the fact that complementary angles add to 90 degrees.
  • Students will write an expression for the missing angle when a variable is given.

FAQ

How do I use this angle relationships worksheet?

⌄

Start with Name Angle Pairs in Line Diagrams, then go through the single equation sheets before the expression sheets. Keep the reference or guided notes next to students as they work.

What does this worksheet teach?

⌄

Find complements of decimal angles such as 33.5° and 41.25°, including angles written with a variable. The directions on the page read: Each pair makes a right angle, so the measures add to 90°. Write the measure of the angle marked? An answer key is included.

Can I use this angle relationships worksheet for homeschool or classroom?

⌄

Yes, both. We made it for 7th grade geometry, and it works the same at home or at school. At home, a student can work through it alone and then go over it with you, which shows quickly what is solid and what needs another look. In class it works as independent practice, homework or a warm-up, and you can print one copy or a full set.

What are complementary and supplementary angles?

⌄

Complementary angles add to 90 degrees and supplementary angles add to 180 degrees. Two angles that form a right angle are complementary, and two that form a straight line are supplementary. Complementary or Supplementary From a Figure has students name the pair and find x.

What are vertical angles?

⌄

Vertical angles are opposite angles made by two intersecting lines, and their measures are equal. Angle Relationships Reference With Examples has students fill in this definition and sketch an example.

How do you find an unknown angle with an equation?

⌄

Write that the angles add up to 90 or 180, then solve for x. In (2x + 10) + (3x + 20) = 180, 5x + 30 = 180, so x = 30. Guided Notes on Angle Pairs walks through this one step at a time.

How do you solve angle problems with a ratio?

⌄

Write the angles as the ratio parts times x, such as 2x and 3x, and set the sum to 90 or 180. Angle Pairs With Ratio Clues has students write the equation, solve it and write both angle measures.
