Checkpoint Solutions
SOL 5.11 The student will measure right, acute, obtuse, and straight angles.
Essential Knowledge and Skills
a. Identify the appropriate tools (e.g., protractor and straightedge or angle ruler as well as available software) used to
measure and draw angles and triangles
b. Measure right, acute, straight, and obtuse angles, using appropriate tools, and identify their measures in degrees
c. Recognize angle measure as additive. When an angle is decomposed into nonoverlapping parts, the angle measure
of the whole is the sum of the angle measures of the parts
d. Solve addition and subtraction problems to find unknown angle measures on a diagram in practical and
mathematical problems, (e.g., by using an equation with a symbol for the unknown angle measure)
