This task looks at the different turns involved in different Olympic sports as a way of exploring the mathematics of turns and angles.
This task develops spatial reasoning skills. By framing and asking questions a member of the team has to find out what mathematical object they have chosen.
This virtual geoboard allows you to create shapes by stretching rubber bands between pegs on the board.
Can you work out how these polygon pictures were drawn, and use that to figure out their angles?
Can you find triangles on a 9-point circle? Can you work out their angles?
Where will the point stop after it has turned through 30 000 degrees? I took out my calculator and typed 30 000 ÷ 360. How did this help?
Join pentagons together edge to edge. Will they form a ring?
