Q & A

What is the total sum of the angles in a quadrilateral?

The total sum of the angles in a quadrilateral is 360 degrees.

How do we calculate the missing angle in a quadrilateral when three angles are known?

To find the missing angle in a quadrilateral, sum the three known angles, subtract that sum from 360 degrees, and the result will be the missing angle.

What property do opposite angles of a parallelogram have?

Opposite angles in a parallelogram are equal.

How do we calculate the unknown angles in a parallelogram if one angle is known?

If one angle is known in a parallelogram, the opposite angle will be the same. The sum of all angles in a parallelogram is 360 degrees, so the other two angles can be found by subtracting the known angles from 360 and dividing the result by 2.

What are co-interior angles in a parallelogram?

Co-interior angles in a parallelogram are pairs of angles that add up to 180 degrees when placed on the same side of the parallelogram.

How do we find the unknown angle in a parallelogram where the angles are bisected?

When an angle is bisected in a parallelogram, divide the angle into two equal parts. Then, use the properties of opposite and co-interior angles to solve for the remaining unknown angles.

What is the method for finding the remaining angle in a parallelogram when two co-interior angles are given?

To find the remaining angle in a parallelogram when two co-interior angles are known, subtract the sum of those angles from 180 degrees. This will give you the value of the remaining co-interior angle.

In a rhombus, how are the interior angles related?

In a rhombus, opposite angles are equal, and adjacent angles are supplementary, meaning they add up to 180 degrees.

How do we calculate the angles in a rhombus that are equally spaced?

If the angles in a rhombus are equally spaced, first calculate the sum of all angles (360 degrees). Then, subtract the sum of the given angles, divide the result by the number of remaining angles, and you will find the value of each unknown angle.

What is the relationship between the angles in a rhombus and a parallelogram?

A rhombus is a special type of parallelogram where all sides are equal. Thus, the properties of angles in a parallelogram also apply to a rhombus, including the fact that opposite angles are equal and adjacent angles are supplementary.
