Answer :
Given: OA, OB, OC, OD and OE have common end point O.
To prove: ∠ AOB + ∠ BOC+ ∠ COD + ∠ DOE + ∠ EOA = 360°.
Construction: Draw the ray opposite to OA.
Proof: Adjacents, ∠COF and ∠COA form a linear pair.
⇒ ∠COF + ∠COA = 180° (Linear Pair Axiom) --------------(1)
Similarly, adjacents, ഏOD and ∠DOA form a linear pair.
⇒ ∠FOD + ∠DOA = 180° --------------- (2)
Adding (1) and (2)
∠COF + ∠COA + ∠FOD + ∠DOA = 180° + 180°
(∠COF + ∠FOD) + ∠COB + ∠BOA + (∠EOA + ∠DOE) = 360°
∠ AOB + ∠ BOC+ ∠ COD + ∠ DOE + ∠ EOA = 360°.
To prove: ∠ AOB + ∠ BOC+ ∠ COD + ∠ DOE + ∠ EOA = 360°.

Adding (1) and (2)

(∠COF + ∠FOD) + ∠COB + ∠BOA + (∠EOA + ∠DOE) = 360°
∠ AOB + ∠ BOC+ ∠ COD + ∠ DOE + ∠ EOA = 360°.
