standard_description: Find the area of right triangles, other triangles, special quadrilaterals, and polygons by composing into rectangles or decomposing into triangles and other shapes; apply these techniques in the context of solving real-world and mathematical problems.
problem_activity: Problem 1
What is the measure, in wedges, of the following angle?
[IMG]
A ray that turns all the way around its endpoint and back to its starting place has made a full turn. We say that the ray has turned 360
degrees
.
[IMG]
How many degrees has the ray turned from where it started?

Problem 2
Determine how many degrees the wedge created in Lesson 5 measures, and use that to create a makeshift protractor to measure benchmark angles.
Use a similar process to create a makeshift protractor that measures in increments of 45°.
Problem 3
Using the makeshift protractors you made in Anchor Task #2, find the measure, in degrees, of each of the following angles. If an angle can’t be measured precisely with either protractor, make an estimate.
