Triangle Sum Game
The Triangle Sum Theorem states that the sum of the measures of the interior angles of any triangle is always 180°. This rule holds true for every single triangle, regardless of its size or shape (whether it’s acute, obtuse, right, equilateral, isosceles, or scalene). This theorem allows you to find a missing angle measure if you know the other two angles. Scroll down the page for a more detailed explanation.
In this game, you will be given two angles in a triangle and you will be asked to find the measure of the third angle. You can select the option of with or without diagram. If you give a wrong answer, the game will give you the right answer.

The Triangle Sum Theorem
The theorem states that the sum of the measures of the interior angles of any triangle is always 180°.
This rule holds true for every single triangle, regardless of its size or shape (whether it’s acute, obtuse, right, equilateral, isosceles, or scalene).
The Formula
If a triangle has three interior angles with measures A, B, and C, the theorem can be expressed as: A + B + C = 180°
Why is this useful?
This theorem allows you to find a missing angle measure if you know the other two angles:
If you know two angles (e.g., A and B), you can calculate the third angle (C):
C = 180° - (A + B)
The video gives a clear, step-by-step approach to learn and use the Triangle Sum Theorem.
