• Fold the triangle so that the point P lies on RS forming a
trapezoid RNMS. 1 2 3
• Fold again so that the vertices R and S meet at point P. R P S
• Determine the sum of the measure of the marked angles
1, 2, and 3.
• Verify your answer by using a protractor. N M
• Therefore, the sum of the measure of the interior angles of 2

The Story Behind…
The couple Poly and Gonny have five nice but
smart kids namely, Trigie, Quadie, Pengie, Hexie, and
Heptie. Mr. Poly is working on an experiment so he
prohibits his siblings to enter a room, where he keeps a
machine which he hopes can transform bigger objects
to smaller once or vice-versa. The kids are so eager and
curious to see the machine which for them can do
magic.
One day, when Mr. Poly is at work and Mrs.
Gonny goes to market, the kids agreed to enter the room
to satisfy their curiosity. Later, the mother came. Finding
the kids nowhere, she proceeded to the laboratory room
and accidentally push a button. A spark of bright light
suddenly appeared. Mrs. Gonny almost lost her
consciousness and shouted “Honey, I shrunk the kids.”
To help the kids regain their normal size you need to
answer the subsequent questions appropriately. For
every correct answer one of the kids will grow back
to its normal size.
