In this lesson, children learn the meaning of hatch marks and use this to help them find missing angles in isosceles and right-angled triangles. They use other known facts from previous lessons to help them solve missing angle problems. There is a teaching presentation accompanied by differentiated activities with a range of fluency, reasoning and problem-solving questions.
