Read through the full deck, or practise recalling each answer above.

  1. What is the sum of the interior angles of any quadrilateral?

    Show answer

    360°

  2. What is the sum of the interior angles of any triangle?

    Show answer

    180°

  3. In a parallelogram, what is the relationship between opposite angles?

    Show answer

    Opposite angles are equal.

  4. In an isosceles triangle, what is special about two of the angles?

    Show answer

    Two angles are equal (the base angles, opposite the equal sides).

  5. Can a triangle have two obtuse angles?

    Show answer

    No. Two obtuse angles (each >90°) would sum to more than 180°, exceeding the triangle's total angle sum.

  6. Can a triangle have a reflex angle?

    Show answer

    No. A reflex angle (>180°) alone exceeds the total angle sum of a triangle (180°).

  7. If an isosceles triangle has one angle of 84°, what are the two possible pairs for the other angles?

    Show answer

    Either (84°, 12°) if 84° is a base angle, or (48°, 48°) if 84° is the vertex angle.

  8. What are the angle properties of a kite?

    Show answer

    One pair of opposite angles are equal (the angles where unequal sides meet).

  9. If the three angles in a triangle are in the ratio 2:6:7, what is the size of the smallest angle?

    Show answer

    24°. (The ratio parts sum to 15, so each part = 180°/15 = 12°, and the smallest angle = 2 × 12° = 24°)

  10. In a parallelogram, what is the relationship between consecutive angles?

    Show answer

    Consecutive angles are supplementary (they sum to 180°).
