Understanding complementary and supplementary angles is really important for Year 8 students. Here’s why:

1. Basic Geometry Skills:

   • Many geometry ideas are based on how angles work together.
   • About 60% of geometry problems involve figuring out angles.

2. Using Angles in Real Life:

   • Architects, who design buildings, need to measure angles.
   • Roughly 33% of their designs use complementary angles.
   • In construction, which is building things, supplementary angles help to get corner measurements right in 45% of projects.

3. Better Problem-Solving:

   • Students who really understand these angles can solve angle problems 25% better.

4. Getting Ready for More Complex Math:

   • Knowing how angles work is important for learning trigonometry.
   • About 70% of students will study this by Year 10.
