Grade Level Standard

This is aligned with the following California State Standards:

  • 7.G.5 - Use facts about supplementary, complementary, vertical, and adjacent angles in a multi-step problem to write and solve simple equations for an unknown angle in a figure.

Linkage Level Descriptions

Initial Precursor

Recognize attributes or characteristics of an object, such as color, orientation, length, width, and weight.

Distal Precursor

Recognize a point as a precise location on a plane or in space, usually represented by a dot. Recognize a ray as a part of a line that begins at one point and extends infinitely in one direction. Recognize a line as a straight line that extends infinitely in two directions.

Proximal Precursor

Recognize an angle as a figure formed by two rays sharing one endpoint.

Target

Recognize an acute, obtuse, or right angle.

Successor

Compare the measure of an angle to the measure of a right angle, and communicate whether the measure of the angle is greater than, less than, or congruent to the measure of the right angle.
