if you are given the length of the sides of a quadrilateral, lets say they are 8 and 10, can you find the interior angles? If so how?

im blanking on this any help? im leaning towards not possible cant prove why

If you are trying to find the individual angle of each corner then you need more information such as what is the shape.

But if you just want to find the sum of the interior angles it would just be 360

it is the base of a pyramid, it is asking for the specific interior angles not the sum

you gave two lengths of a 4 sided polygon. are you saying two sides are 8 and two sides are 10? or you only know the lengths of 2 sides?

to show it's not possible, just give a counter example. eg two different quadrilaterals with those lengths and different angles. for example, a parallelogram and a rectangle.
