Draw Angle A To The Nearest Degree
Measuring angles with a protractor - lesson & video
This 4th grade geometry lesson explains angle measure, how to measure angles with a protractor, and has varied exercises for the students.
The video below explains what an angle measure is, how to measure angles with a protractor, and how to draw angles with a protractor.
This is a 1-degree angle!
 an obtuse angle; 127° |  a right angle; 90° |
| How to measure an angle with a protractor :
| |
| Take care to read from the right set of numbers. A protractor has two sets of numbers: one set goes from 0 to 180, the other set from 180 to 0. Which one you read depends on how you place the protractor: place it so that one side of the angle lines up with one of the zeros, and read that set of numbers. In the examples above we lined up the one side of the angle with the zero of the lower set of numbers, so we need to read the lower set of numbers. | |
1. Measure the angles.
|
a. __________° | b. __________° |
| c. __________° | d. __________° |
2. Measure the angles. Label each angle as acute or obtuse.
| a. __________° ______________________________ | b. __________° ______________________________ |
| c. __________° ______________________________ | d. __________° ______________________________ |
 e. __________° ______________________________ | f. __________° ______________________________ |
3. Tasha measured an acute angle, and got 146°. The teacher pointed out
that she had read the wrong set of numbers on the protractor.
What is the correct angle measure for the angle she measured?
4. Measure the following angles using your own protractor. If you need to, make the sides of the angles
longer with a ruler.
6. Draw four dots, and connect them so that you get a quadrilateral.
Measure all the angles of your quadrilateral. Then add the angle measures.
Did you get 360 degrees, or close?
