How can you prove that the sum of the four interior angles in all quadrilaterals equal 360 degrees?
If you accept that the sum of the angles in a triangle is 180 degrees, then picture this. A quadrilateral shape is two triangles. If you draw a line between one pair of opposite corners in quadrilateral shape, you have two triangles that share a common side. The sum of the angles in the quadrilateral must equal the sum of the angles in the two triangles. 2 x 180 = 360

What is the sum of the interior angles of a quadrilateral?
The interior angles of a quadrilateral (polygon with 4 sides and angles) sum to 360 degrees. We can find this in a couple of ways. First, noting the general formula for an n-gon: S = (n - 2)(180) where S is the sum of the interior angles in degrees and n is the number of sides of the n-gon. We find S = (4 - 2)(180) = 360 degrees. Second, the exterior angles must average 360/n degrees. In this case, 360/4 = 90 degrees. Interior angles are supplementary to exterior angles, so the average interior angle must equal 90 degrees. Finally, 4 interior angles with an average of 90 degrees means a sum of 360 degrees. Finally, consider some quadrilaterals (e.g. squares, rectangles, parallelograms, etc.). They each contain 360 degrees (e.g. four 90 degree angles).

Does a quadrilateral equal 180 degress?
No because the sum of the interior angles of all quadrilaterals total 360 degrees.
What do the interior angles of a polygon equal?
The total for the interior angles depends on the number of sides. The formula for the total of interior angles of an n-sided polygon is sum =180(n-2). This is 180 degrees for triangles, 360 degrees for quadrilaterals, and 540 degrees for pentagons.
What is the polygon whose interior angles equal 180 degrees?
It is a triangle. The formula for the total of interior angles in an n-sided polygon is 180(n-2). This is 180 degrees for triangles, 360 degrees for quadrilaterals, and 540 degrees for pentagons.

Is a rhombus a square explain why?
They are both 4 equal sided quadrilaterals with opposite parallel sides but a square has 4 equal interior angles of 90 degrees whereas a rhombus has 2 equal opposite acute angles and 2 equal opposite obtuse angles.
How many interior degrees are in a hexagon?
A hexagon has six equal interior angles and six equal exterior sides. Each interior angle is 120 degrees, making the total internal angles equal to 720 degrees.
