Angles in Quadrilaterals
This page introduces the concept of angles in quadrilaterals, focusing on the fundamental principle that the suma miar kątów w czworokącie WYNOSI (sum of angles in a quadrilateral equals) 360°.
Definition: A quadrilateral is a polygon with four sides and four angles.
The page explains that regardless of the shape of the quadrilateral (square, rectangle, parallelogram, or irregular), the sum of its interior angles will always be 360°.
Vocabulary: Interior angles are the angles inside a polygon, formed by two adjacent sides.
Example: If three angles of a quadrilateral measure 90°, 75°, and 120°, the fourth angle can be calculated as: 360° - (90° + 75° + 120°) = 75°.
This example demonstrates how to apply the 360° rule to find missing angles in quadrilaterals.
