Sum of angle measures on a point

Let’s look at this visually and take the five angles below:

Sum of angle measures on a point
Rearranging these angles so that they meet at one point,, we get:

The sum of the angles is 360° and they have made a full turn, and so the angles around a point add to
equal 360°.

Sum of angle measures on a point
Angles around a point describes the sum of angles that can be arranged together so that they form a full
turn. Angles around a point add to 360°.
