Answer Key with Explanations

  1. (C) 1800° — Sum = (n − 2) × 180° = 10 × 180° = 1800°.

  2. (B) equal — Opposite angles of a parallelogram are equal; adjacent angles are supplementary.

  3. (A) 72° — Exterior angles sum to 360°: 360 ÷ 5 = 72°.

  4. (A) right angles — Rhombus diagonals are perpendicular bisectors of each other.

  5. (D) 1080° — Sum = (n − 2) × 180° = 6 × 180° = 1080°.

  6. (C) 540° — Sum = (n − 2) × 180° = 3 × 180° = 540°.

  7. (D) trapezium — A trapezium has one pair of parallel sides.

  8. (A) 45° — Exterior angles sum to 360°: 360 ÷ 8 = 45°.

  9. (C) 110° — Angles of a quadrilateral add up to 360°: 360 − 250 = 110°.

  10. (B) all sides are equal — A square is a rectangle with all four sides equal.
