Ajay was asked to find the sum of the four angles of a quadrilateral. He found the sum 
of the four angles as 270° by giving the reasoning as follows: 
 Sum of the three angles of a triangle [made up of three sides]  
= 2 right angles = (3 – 1) right angles. 
 So, the sum of the four angles of quadrilateral [made up of four sides]  
= (4 – 1) right angles = 3 right angles = 270°.
