# Angle Question Block

> Learn how to use Angle Question blocks to create interactive geometry activities for measuring and identifying angles.

The **Angle Question** block creates interactive geometry activities where learners work with angles. Learners can identify angle types (acute, obtuse, right, reflex) or measure specific angles using an interactive protractor.

Perfect for teaching angle concepts from basic identification to precise measurement.

<Info>
  Angle Questions support both angle type identification and degree measurement, with optional random rotation for varied practice.
</Info>

## When to use Angle Questions

Angle questions work well for:

* Identifying angle types (acute, right, obtuse, straight, reflex)
* Measuring angles with a protractor
* Estimating angle sizes
* Understanding angle properties in geometry
* Reinforcing angle vocabulary

## Settings

### Display settings

<ParamField path="Initial degrees" default="90" type="slider">
  The starting angle measurement in degrees (0–360). This is the angle displayed when the question loads.
</ParamField>

<ParamField path="Show Degrees" default="true" type="switch">
  When enabled, displays the current angle measurement in degrees.
</ParamField>

<ParamField path="Show Angle Name" default="true" type="switch">
  When enabled, displays the angle type name (acute, right, obtuse, straight, reflex).
</ParamField>

<ParamField path="Show Circumference" default="true" type="switch">
  When enabled, displays the arc showing the angle measurement.
</ParamField>

<ParamField path="Random Rotation" default="false" type="switch">
  When enabled, the angle is randomly rotated each time the question is presented. This prevents learners from relying on position to identify angles.
</ParamField>

## Answer Types

Angle questions can assess two types of responses:

### Angle Type Identification

Learners identify the type of angle shown:

* **Acute**: Less than 90°
* **Right**: Exactly 90°
* **Obtuse**: Between 90° and 180°
* **Straight**: Exactly 180°
* **Reflex**: Between 180° and 360°

### Degree Measurement

Learners measure or set the angle to a specific degree value.

## Answer and Marking

Set the correct answer based on your question type:

* **Type identification**: Select the correct angle type
* **Degree measurement**: Enter the correct angle in degrees

The question is marked correct when the learner's response matches the expected answer.

## Response settings

<ParamField path="Response requirement" default="Correct" type="select">
  Determines when the question is considered complete:

  * **Correct**: The learner must answer correctly to proceed.
  * **Answered**: Any response is accepted; correctness isn't required.
  * **Optional**: The learner can skip the question entirely.
</ParamField>

<ParamField path="Max responses" default="0" type="slider">
  The number of attempts the learner can make before the question is locked (0–3). Set to **0** for unlimited attempts.
</ParamField>

<ParamField path="XP points" default="5" type="slider">
  The experience points awarded for answering the question correctly (0–10).
</ParamField>

## Tips for teachers and parents

**Best practices:**

* Start with angle type identification before moving to precise measurement
* Use **Random Rotation** to ensure learners understand angles in any orientation
* Hide the angle name when assessing identification skills
* Hide the degree display for estimation activities
* Progress through angle types: right angles → acute/obtuse → straight → reflex
* Use familiar contexts (clock hands, door opening) to make angles relatable
