Angle sum property =>the sum of mearures of the angles of a convex quadrilateral in 360∘ Yes,even if quadrilateral is not convex then, the angle sum property can be applied.
Let ABCD is a non – convex quadrilateral and join BD, which also divides the quadrilateral in two triangles. Using angle sum property of triangle, InΔABD,∠1+∠2+∠3=180∘......(i)InΔBDC,∠4+∠5+∠6=180∘......(ii).Addingeq.(i)and(ii),∠1+∠2+∠3+∠4+∠5+∠6=360∘⇒∠1+∠2+(∠3+∠4)+∠5+∠6=360∘ Hence proved.
