It can be proven that the sum of all the internal angles of a polygon with n sides is (n-2)*180 degrees.

In the case of a square, n = 4 and so the angles sum to (4-2)*180 = 2*180 = 360 degrees.

Does a quadrilateral with four equal sides have to be a square?

NO!!! It can be a Rhombus. Square ' 4 equal sides and four angles at 90 degrees. Rhombus' 4 equal sides, but no angles at 90 degrees.


Are all angles of a parallelogram equal to 90 degrees?

No, only in a square (regular parallelogram).The opposite angles are EQUAL in a parallelogram, and the adjacent angles are SUPPLEMENTARY(they equal 180 degrees).So if any angle in a parallelogram is a right angle, they all are. Otherwise, there are no right angles.The angles of a parallelogram will average 90 degrees, as there are 360 degrees in any quadrilateral, (360/4 - 90) and 180 degrees in two adjacent non-equal angles (180/2 = 90).


Are the angles of a rhombus all equal?

A rhombus looks like a lopsided square, or a diamond shape. It is a parallelogram with four equal sides. The angles of a rhombus do not all need to be equal BUT opposite angles of a rhombus ARE equal. If you were to "straighten it up" and make all the angles equal at right angles, it would be a square. A rhombus with four right angles is a square.


What are the sizes of the other interior angles of a rhombus when one of them is 33 degrees?

It will have 2 opposite equal angles of 33 degrees and 2 opposite equal angles of 147 degrees


What quadrilateral has 2 sets of parallel sides of equal length?

A square has 3 sets of parallel sides of equal length AND all the angles are 90 degrees. A rhombus has 2 sets of parallel lines of equal length, but the angles aren't all 90 degrees.

What is the degress of a square?

360 degrees cause a square has equal sides and 4 equal right angles and a right angle = 90 degrees so 90x4=360 degrees

Squares are made up of what type of angles?

Squares are made up of four ninety degree angles. Another term for these angles are called square angles. These four internal angles make up a square which also has four equal sides. When you add up the degrees of the angles the total is three hundred and sixty degrees.


Why is a rectangle a square?

A rectangle is only a square when all the sides are equal and all the internal angles are right angles.


Is a square an equiangular?

True. All of the angles in a square are equal to 90 degrees, so all of the angles are equal to one another.


Does a parallelogram have all sides the same?

No. A parallelogram has opposite sides parallel.A square is a parallelogram with all sides being equal and all internal angles being 90 degrees.A rectangle is a parallelogram with all internal angles being 90 degrees. and opposite side being equal in length.A rhombus is a parallelogram with all sides equal, but internal angles are not necessarily 90 degrees.


What is the different of a square and a diamond?

All four angles of a square are equal (to 90 degrees). In a diamond, which is a rhombus, there are two pairs of equal angles.
