Problem 872

AIME late
Geometry Difficulty 5.7 Prove it

4. 23 The difference between 2π2 \pi and the sum of the face angles associated with a vertex in a convex polyhedron is called the solid angle deficit of that vertex. Prove that the sum of the solid angle deficits of all vertices of a convex polyhedron is 4π4 \pi.

This one wants a proof. Work it on paper, read the official solution, then mark yourself honestly — the ladder only means something if the record is true.
