Grade 4 geometry word problems

Name: ____________________

Kizupi measures a corner of a kite with a protractor. One side of the corner passes 20 and the other side passes 70, on the same scale. How big is the angle?
Hint for a grown-up: The angle is the space between the two sides. How far is it from 20 to 70?
At the castle gate, a beam stands on a straight path and makes two angles side by side. One angle is 37°. What is the other angle?
Hint for a grown-up: How many degrees make a straight line?
An equilateral triangle kite has all three sides the same length. Its frame is 120 cm all the way around. How long is each side?
Hint for a grown-up: How many sides does a triangle have? Are they all the same?
For the kite tails, Kizupi cuts out 5 squares and 7 trapezoids. Each trapezoid has exactly one pair of parallel sides. How many pairs of parallel sides do all the shapes have in all?
Hint for a grown-up: How many pairs of parallel sides does one square have?
Kizupi cuts a paper sail for a box kite. The sail has four square corners. It is 8 cm wide and 8 cm tall. How many lines of symmetry does the sail have?
Hint for a grown-up: A line of symmetry is a fold where the two halves match exactly. Which folds could work?
The arrow on the festival weather vane turns 3 quarter turns, always the same way. How many degrees does it turn?
Hint for a grown-up: How many degrees is one quarter turn? Think of the corner of a square.
Kizupi makes 2 square kites and 4 triangle kites. Each triangle kite has exactly one square corner. How many right angles do all the kites have?
Hint for a grown-up: How many square corners does one square have?
A stick splits a corner of a kite into two angles, side by side. One angle is 15° and the other is 55°. How big is the whole corner?
Hint for a grown-up: Are we looking for a part or the whole corner?

What these geometry problems cover

Each sheet draws 8 problems from 13 Grade 4 geometry word problems in Kizupi’s published lessons, a different skill for each where it can. Only problems that work on paper are used.

Missing angles · Parallel and perpendicular · Angles as turns · Right, acute and obtuse angles · Measuring angles with a protractor · Adding angles · Kinds of triangles · Lines of symmetry

Where this fits in 4th grade

The Common Core math standards say Grade 4 time should go to these areas [1]:

Multiplying multi-digit numbers and dividing into multi-digit numbers
Equivalent fractions, adding and subtracting like fractions, and a fraction times a whole number
Sorting shapes by parallel sides, right angles and symmetry

Questions parents ask

What geometry word problems do 4th graders do?

The sheets here draw from 8 Grade 4 skills: Missing angles, Parallel and perpendicular, Angles as turns, Right, acute and obtuse angles, Measuring angles with a protractor, Adding angles, Kinds of triangles, Lines of symmetry.

Is the worksheet free?

Yes. No account and no email. Press New sheet for another set of the same topic, and print as many as you like.

Are the answers right?

Every answer is computed with exact arithmetic by the same engine that checks children’s answers in Kizupi, not typed in by hand.

What if geometry word problems are too hard?

Read the problem aloud together and ask what the story is about before any numbers. Use the hint under each problem. If it is still hard, try the mixed Grade 3 sheet first.
