Answer Key: Primary 6 PSLE Mathematics Quiz - Angles Geometry
Section A: Multiple-Choice Questions (10 marks)
1. A) 35° (2 marks)
- Concept: Vertically opposite angles are equal.
- Explanation: When two straight lines intersect, the angles opposite each other are equal. Since one angle is 35°, the vertically opposite angle is also 35°.
- Common mistake: Students may think adjacent angles are equal. Remember: vertically opposite angles are equal; adjacent angles on a straight line sum to 180°.
2. B) 60° (2 marks)
- Concept: Angle sum of a triangle is 180°.
- Explanation: 180° - 45° - 75° = 60°.
- Working: 45 + 75 = 120. 180 - 120 = 60.
- Marking: Award 1 mark for correct method (subtracting from 180), 1 mark for correct answer.
3. C) All sides are equal. (2 marks)
- Concept: Properties of a parallelogram.
- Explanation: A parallelogram has opposite sides parallel and equal, opposite angles equal, and adjacent angles summing to 180°. However, all sides are equal only in a rhombus (a special type of parallelogram), not in all parallelograms.
- Common mistake: Students may confuse parallelogram with rhombus or square.
4. B) 60° (2 marks)
- Concept: Angles on a straight line sum to 180°.
- Explanation: ACD and DCB are adjacent angles on straight line AB. So, angle DCB = 180° - 120° = 60°.
- Working: 180 - 120 = 60.
- Marking: 1 mark for knowing straight line = 180°, 1 mark for correct answer.
5. C) 110° (2 marks)
- Concept: Adjacent angles in a rhombus sum to 180°.
- Explanation: A rhombus is a parallelogram, so adjacent angles are supplementary (sum to 180°). Adjacent angle = 180° - 70° = 110°.
- Working: 180 - 70 = 110.
- Common mistake: Students may think all angles are equal (like a square). Remember: only opposite angles are equal in a rhombus.
Section B: Short-Answer Questions (30 marks)
6. Answer: 100° (3 marks)
- Concept: Isosceles triangle properties and angle sum of triangle.
- Explanation: In an isosceles triangle with AB = AC, the base angles (at B and C) are equal. So angle ACB = angle ABC = 40°. Angle BAC = 180° - 40° - 40° = 100°.
- Working: 40 + 40 = 80. 180 - 80 = 100.
- Marking: 1 mark for identifying equal base angles, 1 mark for correct method, 1 mark for correct answer.
7. Answer: 115° (3 marks)
- Concept: Adjacent angles in a parallelogram sum to 180°.
- Explanation: In a parallelogram, adjacent angles are supplementary. Angle SPQ and angle PQR are adjacent. So angle PQR = 180° - 65° = 115°.
- Working: 180 - 65 = 115.
- Marking: 1 mark for identifying adjacent angles, 1 mark for correct method, 1 mark for correct answer.
8. Answer: 72° (3 marks)
- Concept: Angles on a straight line sum to 180°.
- Explanation: The two angles together form a straight line (180°). Other angle = 180° - 108° = 72°.
- Working: 180 - 108 = 72.
- Marking: 1 mark for knowing straight line = 180°, 1 mark for correct method, 1 mark for correct answer.
9. Answer: 70° (3 marks)
- Concept: Corresponding angles are equal when a transversal cuts parallel lines.
- Explanation: Corresponding angles are in the same relative position at each intersection. They are equal. So the corresponding angle is also 70°.
- Marking: 1 mark for identifying corresponding angles, 1 mark for knowing they are equal, 1 mark for correct answer.
10. Answer: 55° (3 marks)
- Concept: Angle sum of a triangle is 180°.
- Explanation: In triangle XYZ, angle X + angle Y + angle Z = 180°. So angle Z = 180° - 90° - 35° = 55°.
- Working: 90 + 35 = 125. 180 - 125 = 55.
- Marking: 1 mark for correct method, 1 mark for correct subtraction, 1 mark for correct answer.
11. Answer: 90° (3 marks)
- Concept: Angle sum of a quadrilateral is 360°.
- Explanation: Sum of three angles = 80° + 100° + 90° = 270°. Fourth angle = 360° - 270° = 90°.
- Working: 80 + 100 + 90 = 270. 360 - 270 = 90.
- Marking: 1 mark for knowing quadrilateral sum = 360°, 1 mark for correct method, 1 mark for correct answer.
12. Answer: 65° (3 marks)
- Concept: Interior angles on the same side of a transversal are supplementary (sum to 180°) when lines are parallel.
- Explanation: In trapezium ABCD, AB is parallel to DC. Angles ABC and DCB are interior angles on the same side of transversal BC. So angle DCB = 180° - 115° = 65°.
- Working: 180 - 115 = 65.
- Marking: 1 mark for identifying parallel lines, 1 mark for correct angle relationship, 1 mark for correct answer.
13. Answer: 90° (3 marks)
- Concept: Angles around a point sum to 360°.
- Explanation: A full circle is 360°. Divided into 4 equal sectors: 360° ÷ 4 = 90°.
- Working: 360 ÷ 4 = 90.
- Marking: 1 mark for knowing full circle = 360°, 1 mark for correct division, 1 mark for correct answer.
14. Answer: 55° (3 marks)
- Concept: Vertically opposite angles are equal.
- Explanation: Angles AOC and BOD are vertically opposite. So angle BOD = angle AOC = 55°.
- Marking: 1 mark for identifying vertically opposite angles, 1 mark for knowing they are equal, 1 mark for correct answer.
15. Answer: 108° (3 marks)
- Concept: Interior angle sum of a polygon = (n - 2) × 180°, where n is the number of sides.
- Explanation: For a pentagon (5 sides): sum of interior angles = (5 - 2) × 180° = 3 × 180° = 540°. Each interior angle of a regular pentagon = 540° ÷ 5 = 108°.
- Working: (5 - 2) × 180 = 540. 540 ÷ 5 = 108.

16. Answer: 10° (2 marks)
- Concept: Angles on a straight line sum to 180°.
- Explanation: ABC is a straight line. Angle ABD + angle DBE + angle EBC = 180°. So 140° + 30° + angle EBC = 180°. Angle EBC = 180° - 140° - 30° = 10°.
- Working: 140 + 30 = 170. 180 - 170 = 10.
- Marking: 1 mark for correct method, 1 mark for correct answer.
17. Answer: Angle P = 80°, Angle Q = 40° (2 marks)
- Concept: Angle sum of triangle and algebraic representation.
- Explanation: Let angle Q = x. Then angle P = 2x. Angle R = 60°. Sum: x + 2x + 60 = 180. So 3x = 120, x = 40. Angle Q = 40°, angle P = 80°.
- Working: 2x + x + 60 = 180 → 3x = 120 → x = 40. P = 2 × 40 = 80.

- Working: 90 + 60 = 150.
- Marking: 1 mark for identifying both angles correctly, 1 mark for correct answer.
19. Answer: 37.5° and 52.5° (2 marks)
- Concept: Complementary angles sum to 90°.
- Explanation: Let the smaller angle be x. Then the larger angle is x + 15. Sum: x + (x + 15) = 90. So 2x + 15 = 90, 2x = 75, x = 37.5. The angles are 37.5° and 52.5°.
