Question 183991: It gave me triangles to see if they had right angles. There were 4 of them. Then it asked me to find the sum be of the non-right angles and what i noticed. Then it asked me if i were to draw a different right triangle, what would the sum be of it's non-right angles and how i know?

You can put this solution on YOUR website! It gave me triangles to see if they had right angles. There were 4 of them. Then it asked me to find the sum be of the non-right angles and what i noticed. Then it asked me if i were to draw a different right triangle, what would the sum be of it's non-right angles and how i know?
:
You know that in any triangle, all three angles add up to 180 degrees, right?
:
You know that a right triangle has one 90 degree angle, that means the other
two angles have to add up to 90 to give a total of 180 degrees.
We can say that in any group of 4 right triangles, the total of the
non-right angles, will have to be 4 * 90 = 360 degrees. right?
