About this worksheet

Angles in standard position: quadrants, coterminal and reference angles. Every version has 10 questions, and the answer key prints on the second page.

What your child will learn

I can draw any angle as a turn from the positive x-axis and name its quadrant.
I can find an angle from 0° to 360° (or 0 to 2π) that ends at the same place.
I can find the reference angle of any angle, in degrees or radians.

Standard: F-TF.A.1, F-TF.A.2

Words to know

standard position: An angle that starts on the positive x-axis and turns from there.

counterclockwise: The turning direction of a positive angle: up first from the positive x-axis.

coterminal angles: Angles that end at the same place; they differ by full turns.

quadrant: One of the four parts of the grid, numbered I to IV counterclockwise.

reference angle: The acute angle between the end of the turn and the x-axis.

radian: The angle that cuts an arc one radius long; a full turn is 2π.

Common mistakes

Used a half turn (180° or π) as if it were a full turn. Turn around once on the spot together and count the 360°.

Turned the wrong way: a negative angle turns clockwise, a positive one counterclockwise. Act out a few turns with an arm pointing right.

Took away one full turn but stopped while the angle was still more than a turn. Ask which angle from 0° to 360° it lands on.

Questions parents ask

What is the most common mistake with angles in standard position: quadrants, coterminal and reference angles?

Used a half turn (180° or π) as if it were a full turn. Turn around once on the spot together and count the 360°.
