MA27-12

This lesson is coming soon.

In this lesson

Provide reasons, using standard geometrical statements, to support numerical values for angles in any geometrical context spanning lines, polygons and circles together, choosing between the model phrase and accepted variants.

What it covers

  • Writing a standard geometrical statement as a reason, across lines, polygons and circles together in a single question
  • The one 'model' accepted phrase plus one or two accepted variants for a given fact

For teachers

This GCSE Maths lesson teaches writing formal geometrical reasoning across lines, polygons and circles (Higher). By the end, students should be able to provide reasons, using standard geometrical statements, to support numerical values for angles in any geometrical context spanning lines, polygons and circles together, choosing between the model phrase and accepted variants. It works through two worked examples and the mistakes examiners report.
