Show that each of the four angles of rectangle is a right angle
Answers
Answer:
the sum interior angles of a quadrilateral =360
as a rectangle has 4 sides the measure of a angle = 360÷4
=90°
hence proved measure of a side=90°
hope this helps.!!
Answer:
Given:
a rectangle ABCD
to prove
angle A= angle B= angle C= angle D=90°
proof:
we know that, rectangle is a parallelogram where one angle is 90°
hence let's assume
angle A =90°
now,
AD || BC.
& AB is a transversal
( opposite sides of parallelogram are parallel)
so, angle A + angle B=180°
( interior angles on the same sides of transversal are supplementary)
angle B + 90° =180° (angle A= 90°)
angle B= 180°-90°
angle B =90°
now we know that
opposite angle of parallelogram are equal
since, angle C = angle A and angle D=angle B
since, angle C =90° and angle D=90°
so each of the angle of a rectangle in right angle are equal
