Problem solving and reasoning questions Draw a shape with 2 right angles that is not a square. Identify angle in this shape that is more than 90 degrees. Set a clock to 3 o’clock. Move the minute hand clockwise through 3 right angles. What is the time? What is the angle between the hands of a clock at 6 o’clock? Draw a triangle with 1 angle less than 90 degrees and 1 angle more than 90 degrees. Is the third angle more or less than a right angle? True or false? • A horizontal line is always at right angles with a vertical line. • All shapes with 2 pairs of parallel lines are rectangles. • A pair of perpendicular lines must be horizontal and vertical. © hamilton-trust. org. uk 8 Year 3
