About this activity

A pirate-deck pool table where the math is the shot: call or aim the angle (equal angles, normals, straight lines, opposite angles, triangles) and the cannonball sinks only when the angle is right.

What students learn

  • Use a protractor to measure an angle between a path and a cushion (E2.2)
  • Use equal angles of incidence and reflection to find an angle out from an angle in (E2.3)
  • Use complementary, supplementary, opposite and triangle angle facts to find unknown angles (E2.3)
