The 3 interior angles of any triangle add up to 180 degrees because of the formula:

(3-2)*180 = 180 degrees

What is co-interior angles?

co- interior angles are on a straight line and add up to 180 degrees


How do you know that a trapazoid measures 360 degrees?

Consider the trapezium (or trapezoid) ABCD such that AD is parallel to BC.Then angles DAB and ABC are consecutive interior angles (or co-interior angles) and sum to 180 deg.Similarly, angles ADC and DCB sum to 180 deg.Therefore, the sum of all four is 180 + 180 = 360 deg.


Are co interior angles equal?

Co-interior angles are not congruent. The only case in which they would be is if the transversal was perpendicular to the two parallel lines.


Are co-interior angles equal?

What are allied angles?

Allied (or co-interior) angles are supplementary. Vertically opposite angles are always equal.


Angles on the inside of two parallel lines split by a transversal?

Two parallel lines bisected by a straight line can produce three angles. Angles on the one side or 'inside' are corresponding. They can also be co-interior, in that they add up to 180-degrees. Opposite side one are called alternate angles.


How The bisectors of any 2 consecutive angles of a parallelogram intersect at right angles?

I expect "consecutive angles" are any pair that aren't opposite. Since they are co-interior angles between parallel lines, they are supplementarty (i.e. total 180 deg). When you bisect them, the bisectors join to form a triangle. Two of its angles are halves of the "consecutive angles", and so they total half of 180 deg, which is 90 deg. Hence the third angle is 90 deg (to give angle sum of the triangle as 180 deg), so the bisectors are perpendicular.


Two angles whose sum is 180 degrees?

Two 90 degree angles create a perpendicular angle. A 60 degree angle and 120 degree angle also create a 180 degree sum.


What are the are the kinds of a polygon?

There are several types of polygons, including regular polygons, which have equal sides and angles, such as a square or equilateral triangle. There are also irregular polygons, which have different side lengths and angles, such as a rectangle or pentagon. Finally, there are convex polygons, where all interior angles are less than 180 degrees, and concave polygons, where at least one interior angle is greater than 180 degrees.


What is co-exterior angle?

A co-exterior angle is almost the same thing as co-interior:Two angles on the same side of the transversal (in a figure where two parallel lines are intersected by a transversal).They are supplementary angles (add up to 180º).They are exterior angles meaning they are outsideof the two parallel lines (opposite of interior angles which are inside the two parallel lines).


Who were the roman emperors during the pax romana?

There were some 17 named emperors of Rome during the 207 years usually considered the Pax Romana (27 BC to 180 AD). It began under Augustus Caesar and ended with the reign of Marcus Aurelius. Exceptions to the general peace were the internecine struggles of the "Year of Four Emperors" (69 AD) and the conquests by Claudius (Roman Britain 43 AD) and Trajan (Parthian subjugation 117 AD). The 17 emperors were: Augustus Caesar (27 BC - 14 AD) Tiberius (14 - 37 AD) Caligula (37 - 41 AD) Claudius (41 - 54 AD) Nero (54 - 69 AD) * Galba, Otho, Vitellius (69 AD) Vespasian (69-79 AD) Flavian dynasty to 96 AD Titus (79 - 81 AD) Domitian (81 - 96 AD) Trajan (96 - 117 AD) Hadrian (117-138 AD) Antoninus Pius (138 - 161 AD) Marcus Aurelius (161 - 180 AD) (Lucius Verus 161 - 169 AD co-emperor) (Commodus 177-180 AD co-emperor, 180 - 192 AD)
