What educators are saying

Thank you! This was a great way to get students engaged with parallel lines and create something that was fun to hang around the room.
This is the perfect activity as we start reviewing for final exams for my Geometry class. I love hanging student work, and the pennant design makes it just a little extra. I 100% recommend this for anyone teaching angle relationships.

Description

Students find the measures of angle pairs in this math pennant activity that doubles as classroom décor. Angle relationships include: corresponding, alternate interior, vertical, same-side interior, alternate exterior and supplementary. Students first need to solve equations with x on both sides for equal angle pairs or combine two binomials and set equal to 180 before finding angle measures. Once a pennant is complete, it can be hung along a string in your classroom.

Included are 20 pennants, an answer sheet (if you would like students to also record their answers for credit) and an answer key. Each group of students can be given a set of pennants, scissors and either glue, tape or a stapler. Students can be in charge of cutting out the pennants. Groups can compete to see which group can complete the most pennants or your entire class can add pennants to one string as they complete each one. You may also choose to have your students color their pennants to add to your classroom decor.

Standards

to see state-specific standards (only available in the US).
Use informal arguments to establish facts about the angle sum and exterior angle of triangles, about the angles created when parallel lines are cut by a transversal, and the angle-angle criterion for similarity of triangles. For example, arrange three copies of the same triangle so that the sum of the three angles appears to form a line, and give an argument in terms of transversals why this is so.
Prove theorems about lines and angles.
