Adeline draws two adjacent angles.  The measure of the smaller angle is 26 degrees.  Both angles together make a right angle.  What is the measure of the larger angle?

64 degrees.

Explain how someone could know that the line on this figure is a line of symmetry.

A line of symmetry divides a shape in half, so that when folded on the line of symmetry both sides match.

George has a band lesson at 2:00 every day.  At 2:00, the hands of the clock form a 60 degree angle.  What is the measure of the angle formed by the clock hands at 4:00?

Each hour adds 30 degrees, so a 4:00 angle would be 120 degrees.

Second row:  (These shapes do not belong.)

a.  The shape is a quadrilateral.

b.  The shape has two sets of parallel sides.

c.  The shape must have all right angles.

d.  The shape does not have any perpendicular sides.

a.  The shape is a quadrilateral.
