Angles at a PointSEAG Practice Questions

Understanding that angles around a point add up to 360° and using this to find missing angles.

Where your child meets this in real life: Understanding pie charts, clock angles, or compass bearings

What your child needs to know

SEAGReady breaks angles at a point into 3 steps, taught in order so each skill builds on the last.

  1. 1

    Two Angles at a Point

    supporting lesson — excluded from official-format mocks

    Find a missing angle when two angles meet at a point

  2. 2

    Three or More Angles

    supporting lesson — excluded from official-format mocks

    Find a missing angle when three or more angles meet at a point

  3. 3

    Equal Angles at a Point

    supporting lesson — excluded from official-format mocks

    Find unknown angles when some angles at a point are equal

Three free sample questions from our angles at a point course. Every question comes with a full explanation, and hints that guide without giving the answer away.

Question 1Confidence builder

The circle shown has one sector of 130°. What is the angle of the remaining sector?

A circle split into a 130-degree sector and one unknown remaining sector.
Answer choices for question 1
Question 2Confidence builder

Three rays meet at a point. The angles between them are 90°, 120°, and an unknown angle. What is the missing angle?

Three rays meeting at a point with angles of 90 degrees, 120 degrees, and one unknown angle.
Answer choices for question 2
Question 3Confidence builder

A circular garden is divided into four equal sections. What is the angle of each section?

A circular garden divided into four equal sections, each labelled x.
Answer choices for question 3

Try the lesson: Two Angles at a Point

This is the exact interactive worked example your child sees in SEAGReady. Step through it and watch the method build up.

Cara is looking at a pie chart showing how pupils travel to school. The 'walk' section takes up 145° of the circle.

What angle is left for all the other ways of travelling?

360° − 145°

Recall the angle sum at a point

Cara is looking at a pie chart showing how pupils travel to school. The 'walk' section takes up 145° of the circle.

What angle is left for all the other ways of travelling?

  1. 1

    Recall the angle sum at a point

    • Angles around a point make a full turn
    • A full turn is 360°360°
  2. 2

    Calculate the missing angle

    • Subtract the known angle from 360°360° − 145° = 215°

The other ways of travelling take up 215° of the pie chart.

The key insight: A full turn around any point is always 360° - like going all the way around a clock!

Common mix-up: 180° − 145° = 35°. That's the rule for a straight line (180°), not angles around a point (360°).

Mistakes to watch for

These are the misconceptions we see most often in angles at a point, including the ones our practice questions are specifically designed to catch.

  • Confusing with angles on a straight line
  • Missing one of the angles when adding
  • Errors with larger subtractions
