Follow the instructions to fold your square: Step 1: Start with a square piece of paper. Fold it in half horizontally. Step 2: Fold the top right Step 3: Fold the bottom Step 4: Fold along the vertex down to the left vertex up to the edge created by the two horizontal crease line so horizontal crease line so folded triangles. The that the new crease passes that the new crease also lower right vertex should through the upper left passes through the upper come up and over the vertex. left vertex. triangles.
3. On the back of this sheet, make a list of each angle and give logical arguments proving the measure of each angle (Hint: there are over 20 angles) No protractors Look for right angles Think about angles that might be bisected, congruent, supplementary, or complementary For any angle whose measure you dont know, write what you do know (what is it congruent to? Supplement to? Etc.) Line up angles with a neighbor to check for congruence
