INTERIOR / EXTERIOR ANGLE SUM OF A QUADRILATERAL


  • The interior angle sum of a quadrilateral is 360°.
  • The exterior angle sum of a quadrilateral is 360°.

Angles and Parallel Lines


  • When a pair of parallel lines are cut by a transversal:

1) the corresponding angles are equal,

2) the alternate angles are equal,

3) the co-interior angles are supplementary.

  • Supplementary angles are angles which sum to 180°.
