Worksheet could be used as a lesson to show students the difference between these two types of data. (Australian Curriculum) NSW MA3-18SP uses appropriate methods to collect data and constructs, interprets and evaluates data displays, including dot plots, line graphs and two-way tables

An activity with solutions where students need to construct quadrilaterals given their diagonals, identify them, then complete their diagonal properties. (Australian Curriculum) NSW MA4-17MG classifies, describes and uses the properties of triangles and quadrilaterals, and determines congruent triangles to find unknown side lengths and angles

Two doubled sided worksheets with solutions. Students work out the answers to the questions by applying their knowledge of the main four compass directions. Suitable for a lesson or as an introduction to compass directions. (Australian Curriculum) NSW MA3-17MG locates and describes positions on maps using grid-reference system

This is a set of 2 activities helping students understand how to explore the relationship between right-angled triangles and rectangles, leading to finding the area of a right-angled triangle. The first activity has 2 pages that need to be printed on separate pages because students will need to cut out and assemble rectangles. The second activity needs a page of cm graph paper. Full solutions are also provided. (Australian Curriculum) NSW MA3-10MG selects and uses the appropriate unit to calculate area, including areas of squares, rectangles and triangles

An activity with solutions catering for a wide range of ability. The first activity is where students need to be able to follow instructions to construct and cut out, manipulate the shapes to form a rectangle, and calculate area and perimeter of rectangles. There is also a challenge for more able students. The second activity is for younger or less able students, where the teacher prepares the shapes beforehand and then can ask the students to form a rectangle, or give the students the shape of the rectangle for them to fill in with the shapes (like a jigsaw). (Australian Curriculum) NSW MA3-2WM selects and applies appropriate problem solving strategies, including the use of digital technologies, in undertaking investigations

A 3 page activity with worked solutions. Students need to construct different Fibonacci number patterns by varying the starting numbers. They need to identify even numbers and look for any patterns. They need to graph their answers and note the shapes formed. They need to find the area of a number of squares that can be arranged into a large rectangle and find its area. (Australian Curriculum) NSW MA3-8NA analyses and creates geometric and number patterns, constructs and completes number sentences, and locates points on the Cartesian plane

A series of 3 worksheets ( the first one being double sided) where students need to use their geometrical reasoning skills to work out the answers. The students are supported by having the geometrical facts also provided on the first worksheet. Worked solutions are also provided. (Australian Curriculum) NSW MA4-3WM recognises and explains mathematical relationships using reasoning

Two part activity for students, first is a 2 page activity with triangles then the second is a 3 page activity with quadrilaterals. Answers are provided. Students need to use the grids to draw a variety of triangle and quadrilateral tessellations. They need to review their knowledge of angle properties and use some problem solving skills. (Australian Curriculum) NSW MA4-18MG identifies and uses angle relationships, including those related to transversals on sets of parallel lines
