①This GeoGebra example dynamically demonstrates that the sum of the four interior angles of any convex quadrilateral is always 360°. ②The core mathematical concept is the quadrilateral interior angle sum theorem, extending the general polygon angle sum formula (n-2)×180°, with emphasis on angle measurement and geometric reasoning. ③Construction highlights: using the Segment command to connect points A, B, C, D forming the quadrilateral, and the Point command to place auxiliary points E, F, G on sides or diagonals; angle labels and dynamic measurements update as vertices are dragged, showing individual angles and their total. ④Suitable for middle school geometry lessons or high school review, serving as an interactive exploration tool to help students verify the theorem and develop inductive thinking.

AI Drawing Prompt Reference

Draw a convex quadrilateral ABCD by connecting points A, B, C, and D. Then, take points E on AC, F on AB, and G on AD. Ensure that the sum of the interior angles remains 360 degrees when dragging the vertices, and display the degree of each angle.
