Which of these shapes has the smallest angle measure? Which has the angle with the largest measure? Can you find a 90⁰ angle in one of these shapes? How do you know it is 90⁰? How do the angles in Shape D compare to a right angle? Are their measures greater than or less than a right angle? What would be a reasonable estimate of the measure of the greatest angle of Shape D? How do you know? Presenting the Challenge: http:// dashweb.pearsoncmg.com / main.html
