Angles In
The Environment
We are learning to go into the environment and identify
different angles like acute, obtuse, reflex, etc.
We have to take photos and present them either
on a slideshow, document or a google drawing.
- Acute Angle/ Koki tāhapa
This a photo I have taken when going out into the
environment of an acute angle. This angle is on the
inner side of the number seven on a hopscotch activity
on the concrete. An acute angle is an angle that is
measured to be less than 90 degrees.
- A full angle/ Koki huripū
This type of angle may look like a yellow flower you
will find inside of anyone's garden and, yes it is, but
it is also a full angle. The inner circle of the flower is
a full circle which makes it a full angle. A full angle is
an angle that is exactly 360 degrees.
3)Obtuse Angle/ Koki hāpūpū
In this photo, my friend (Dakota) has helped me take
a photo of an obtuse angle. I found this obtuse angle
in the environment on metal poles for when going
upstairs. An obtuse angle is an angle that is greater
than 180 degrees but less than 360 degrees.
4) Reflex Angle/ Koki rāwaho
5) Straight Angle/ Koki rārangi
This is a photo I took of my friend’s Chromebook with a
straight angle on it. Straight angles are angles that
are exactly 180 degrees. Straight angles are definitely
the easiest angle you could find in the environment.
On every angle there are three important features.
They are called the rays, vertex and the angle. The
rays are usually found in between the two angles which
measures the angle. The vertex is the point where the
two lines meet and the angle is also the circle to
determine the type of angle it is.
Personal Comment:
Doing this activity of taking photos of different angles
and presenting them on a visual display is something I
enjoyed. I agree that doing this activity for any classroom
or students will test their knowledge of angles and where
they can find them other than on their maths work.
