Complementary Angles Teacher Resources

Supplementary, obtuse, acute, complementary angles. It's good to know what all of these mean, but let's focus on one at a time. Complementary angles always add up to 90 degrees. So if given one angle in a complementary angle problem, the...

Complement the angle definition. The resource, a video within a basic geometry playlist, introduces the definition of complementary angles. Using the definition, the presentation finds complements of given angles.

Are complementary angles nice to each other? That's not what complementary means in math. Complementary angles are two angles that add up to 90 degrees and form a right triangle. So if given one value in a problem about complementary...

Building trigonometric basics here will last a mathematical lifetime. Learners expand on the previous lesson in a 36-part series by examining relationships between the sine and cosine of complementary angles. They also review the ratios...

Elementary schoolers find the missing angle in a complementary angle.  This two-page worksheet contains six problems. Answers are provided.

Investigate algebraic applications of complementary angles. Young scholars watch as the instructor describes and defines complementary angles. He then shows an example of finding an unknown value of x given expressions for a pair of...

Soccer is all about angles. Young mathematicians use an interactive to correctly position the path of a soccer ball so that it reaches the goal. They consider complementary angles when answering a set of challenge questions.

Complement and supplement your knowledge of angles. Young mathematicians study supplementary and complementary angle pairs using an interactive. A set of challenge questions solidifies this understanding.

How can geometry learners remember the difference between supplementary and complementary angles? Not only will the video explain how to remember these two angles, but it also demonstrates how to find unknown angles knowing the degree of...

Discover trigonometric ratios that complement each other. Using two videos, the lesson introduces the trigonometric ratios. The class discovers the relationship between the sine and cosine of complementary angles.

For this complementary angles worksheet, students use their geometry skills to identify the missing angle measurements in each set of 6 complementary angles.

In this angles worksheet, students solve 6 problems in which the missing angle measurement in each set of complementary angles is calculated.

In this angle pairs activity, students use the diagram to find a pair of complementary angles, supplementary angles, exterior angles, and interior angles. Students then find the degree measurement for the angles b, c, e, h, j, and k....

In this complementary angles worksheet, students match each given angle with its complement. There are 8 problems on the page.

A straightforward lesson explains the meaning of complementary and supplementary angles. The instructor uses both an algebraic representation and a numeric example to describe each angle pair.

Sine and cosine ratios have more in common than just their names—they are complementary to each other. Using a 30-60-90 triangle, pupils create a table of the sine and cosine of the acute angles. The learners describe the relationships...

Work with sine and cosine relationships three ways. Three questions assess pupils' understanding of the trigonometric relationship between complementary angles. Learners use the value of one ratio to determine the other and the equal...

This resource suggests various activities to establish the relationship between the sine and cosine of complementary angles. The activities have learners making conjectures based on their explorations and providing rationales to support...

Here's an interactive that complements your lesson plans. Users of the resource adjust one of the angles in a complementary set to see how it affects the other. A set of challenge questions assesses understanding.
