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°.

  • 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.

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.

  • 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°.

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°.
