A. OBESERVATION
In this unit, our class learn much about angles. Here, I will tell the
basic knowledge of angles we learned. First off, a straight line is 180
and a full angle which look like complete circle is 360. Next, are 4
the types of angle. They are:
Acute angle: An angle that is less than 90
Right Angle: A 90 angle
Obtuse Angle: An angle more than 90 but less than 180
Reflex Angle: Angle more than 180
Next is one basic properties of angle, which is impossible to prove.

(Made with Geogebra)

Given that AB is parallel to CH, we have AFG = FGH and BFG

= FGC. There is no possible way to prove this, but it is always
correct. Lastly is about complementary and supplementary angles:
Complementary angles are two angles whose sum is 90
Supplementary angles are two angles whose sum is 180

Why do angles at a point have a sum of 360?

Why are vertically opposite angles equal?
Why are the opposite angles of a parallelogram equal?
Why is the angle sum of a triangle 180?
Why is the exterior angle of a triangle equal to the sum of the
two remote interior angles?
6. Why is the angle sum of a quadrilateral 360?

C. EXPLANATION
1)
Now, we can know that all angle in a point make up one full
angle. Since a full angle is 360, all angle in a point is also 360.

2)
Now, we assume that AED = . Since AED and DEB are
supplementary angles,
AED + DEB = 180

 + DEB
DEB

= 180
= 180 -

We have DEB = 180 -

We also know that,
DEB + BEC = 180
(180 - ) + BEC
= 180
BEC = = AED
It is proven that vertically opposite angles are equal.

3)
Let BAE =
Since BA and EF are parallel, BAE = AEC =
AEC and AEF are supplementary
AEF = 180 -
AE and BF are also parallel
So, AEF = DFE = 180 -
BFE and DFE are supplementary
BFE = = BAE
It is proven that opposite angles in parallelogram are equal.

4)
Let ABC = , BCA = and BAC =
Let DE be a line parallel to AC which pass point B
Now, BCA = EBC = since ED and AC are parallel
Also, BAC = ABD = since ED and AC are parallel
We can see that all angles of the triangles (, and ) make up a
straight angle. Proven that all angles in a triangle sum up to 180

5)

Let BAC = and ABC =

Since all angle in a triangle sum to 180, ACB = 180 - -

ACB and ACF are supplementary,
ACF = + = BAC + ABC
Proven.

6)

When you draw one diagonal is a quadrilateral, it makes up 2

triangles. Hence, the sum of all angle is 360

D. CONCLUSION
We now can conclude that all angle in a point sum to 360,
vertical opposite angle are equal, opposite angles in a parallelogram
are equal, sum of angle in a triangle is 180, the exterior angle of a
triangle equals to the sum of the other two interior and the sum of
angle in a quadrilateral is 360
