Math Problem Statement
While the measurement of the individual angles in a triangle can vary, their sum is always____.
180
90
360
45
Solution
The sum of the angles in any triangle is always 180 degrees.
Explanation:
A triangle is a closed two-dimensional geometric shape with three sides and three angles. According to the basic properties of triangles in Euclidean geometry, the interior angles always add up to 180 degrees, regardless of the type of triangle (scalene, isosceles, or equilateral).
