Written records of the history of China date from as early as 1500 BC, from the Shang dynasty (c. 1600â1046 BC). Ancient historical texts such as the Records of the Grand Historian (c. 100 BC) and the Bamboo Annals (296 BC) describe a Xia dynasty (c. 2070â1600 BC) before the Shang, but no writing on a durable medium have survived.
A square is a quadrilateral so it has 360 degrees. A square is a quadrilateral so it has 360 degrees.
This rectangle has four 90 degree angles adding up to 360 degrees. Since the triangles are congruent each triangle has half as many degrees, namely 180. So this is true for any right triangle. Suppose you triangle is not a right triangle. Draw a perpendicular from the vertex opposite the longest side, to the longest side.
