THE ANGLE SPIN

geometry · complementary, supplementary, and congruent angles

To find measures of complementary, supplementary and congruent [8.G.A.5].

THE ANGLE SPIN is a Grade 8 geometry game for complementary, supplementary, and congruent angle relationships. Each player moves on a grid of angle measures, but a move is legal only when the current angle and a connected angle satisfy the relationship selected by the spinner. Students therefore compare pairs of measures before every move.

Use it for small-group review when students are identifying angle pairs and calculating missing measures. The connected-grid format gives students a reason to scan several possible angles rather than answer one isolated question.
