- Who is the Lines and Angles poster for?

- When should you use the Lines and Angles poster?
- Find each one in the room. Parallel and perpendicular are everywhere. A wall chart earns its place by being glanceable from where the work is happening, so Lines and Angles belongs on the wall where that math work actually happens, within glancing distance, rather than filed away.

- What size does the Lines and Angles poster print at?
- Lines and Angles is a vector PDF laid out for US Letter, and prints on A4 with Fit to page — the same file, no separate download. Because every mark on it is drawn rather than photographed, it stays sharp enlarged to A3, A2 or A1 at a copy shop. Colour carries emphasis only, so a greyscale print of Lines and Angles loses nothing.Printing guide
