Answer:
Let BE intersects AC and AD at L and M respectively
Now, in ▲ MBD, by using exterior angle property ∠2 = ∠B +∠D (1)
Similarly, in ▲LCE, ∠1 = ∠C +∠E (2)
In ▲ALM, ∠A+∠1+∠2 = 180°
⇒ ∠A+∠C +∠E + ∠B +∠D = 180° (From Eqs. (1) and (2))
Or ∠ A+∠B +∠C +∠D +∠E = 180°
Note: In n point star sum of all the angles at its vertices is (n − 4)×180°.
