    The sum of all interior angles of a triangle is always 180 degrees. This property holds true for all triangles, regardless of their shape or size.

    Proof of ANGLE SUM PROPERTY THEOREM:

    Step 1: Draw a line AB through the vertex P and parallel to the side QR of a triangle PQR.

    Step 2: ∠APQ + ∠QPR + ∠RPB = 180 degrees

    [Linear Pair theorem] -(1)

    Step 3: ∠APQ = ∠PQR [Alternate interior angles] -(2)

    Step 4: ∠RPB = ∠PRQ [Alternate interior angles] -(3)

    Step 5: Substituting equation (2) and (3) in equation

    Thus, the theorem is proved.
