Ugh, Alien intruders always seem to be hopping on board the International Spaceport. Thankfully, Angle Attack allows our top Blasters to keep watch for any intergalactic villains trying to invade the ship! In this game, use your best geometry skills to identify what angle the Alien is from you. That way you can get a better understanding of measuring angle degrees while targeting your opponent as accurately as possible. Just watch out! If you do not calculate the angle in time, the Alien might get you! Do you think you are ready for this Blaster Mission?

Did you know that the more engaged a person is in an activity or lesson, the more likely they are to retain the information they are learning? Math in particular, may seem hard and boring; learning to calculate angles by degree might seem very uninteresting. However, that is until you experience Angle Attack in the Math Academy.
In this game, the only way to save the space station is to figure out the correct angle from which your enemy is attacking. Don’t let the pressure get to you, just remember that all you need to do is separate the arena into degrees, each of which is—10° with the total arena equating to 360°.
If you can remember that, you could be one of our top Angle Attack Blasters. Simply count the number of degrees to his location. Key in the amount you counted, then press the trigger (the enter button). Bam! Your enemy is defeated. Because each slice equals 10°, all you need to do is count by tens until you get to their location. It’s that simple, you’ve learned how to measure angles by degrees, had tons of fun, and raked in some coins, which, we all know, will come in handy later in the game.
Additionally, you have the option to go from easy-to-hard. Start small and increase levels of difficulty as you improve your game. The more you practice, the better you will become and the more coins you will earn. Try this fun gem out and you will see that math, geometry isn’t as arduous as you thought. Compete against your Math Blaster buddies and see who can dominate. But most importantly, have fun.
