Q97 of 160 Page 144

State whether the statements are true (T) or false (F).

Sum of all the angles of a quadrilateral is 180°.

FALSE

Sum of all the angles of a quadrilateral is 360°.


Because ,the quadrilateral can be divided into 2 triangles and sum of angles of each of the triangles is 180°.


when we join these 2 triangles to get back the original quadrilateral then the sum of all the angles of the quadrilateral is sum of angles of both the triangles ie. 180°(sum of angles of triangle1) + 180° (sum of angles of triangle2) = 360° (sum of angles of quadrilateral)
