Learning Objective

I can determine the angle sums of triangles and quadrilaterals.

  • 1

    A triangle is a shape with three sides and three angles, and the sum of its interior angles is always 180 degrees.

  • 2

    Triangles can be classified by their angles (right, acute, obtuse) or by their sides (equilateral, scalene, isosceles).

  • 3

    The sum of the interior angles of a quadrilateral is 360 degrees, which can be shown by dividing it into two triangles.
