Question 1 of 3

A protractor is placed on angle XYZ. The ray YX aligns with the 0° mark, and ray YZ aligns with the 127° mark. What is the measure of angle XYZ?

Question 2 of 3

A clock shows 3:00. What is the measure of the angle between the hour hand and the minute hand?

Question 3 of 3

A straight line is divided into two angles. One angle measures 47°. What is the measure of the other angle?

How this fits in

Measuring and drawing angles is one skill in the Basic Geometry unit. Students read the unit lesson, then earn a bronze, silver, or gold medal on their last 10 answers. Medals never go down. A mastered unit comes back for review after 1, 3, 7, 16, and 35 days so it stays learned.
