The median angular sizes in different redshift bins were plotted as a function of (1 + z) for bright steep spectrum radio galaxies and quasars, both together and separately. These were compared to the theoretical curves for an Euclidean universe, and for a Friedmann universe with linear size evolution of the form l equal to about (1 + z) exp (-x) with x = 3. It was found that, for the sources as a whole, the variation of angular diameter with redshift behaved as expected in an Euclidean universe, which can also correspond to a Friedmann universe with linear size evolution and x values between 1 and z.
