How do I prove that the sum of opposite angles in a quadrilateral are supplementary? What theorems would I use?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

try using arcs...

@sidsiddhartha You might know this?

OpenStudy (sidsiddhartha):

u can prove it by using arcs

OpenStudy (abbles):

how would I do that?

OpenStudy (sidsiddhartha):

|dw:1400833695572:dw| here arc(CDE)=2*angle B and arc(EBC)=2* angle D NOW arc(CDE)+arc(EBC)=360 so 2[angleB+angleD]=360 angleB+angleD=180 so B and D are supplementary. similarly u can prove C an E are supplementary.
