| Abstract: | We give a necessary and sufficient condition for a given set of positive real numbers to be the dihedral angles of a hyperbolic n -simplex in this note. This answers a question of W. Fenchel raised in his book, Elementary Geometry in Hyperbolic Space, (De Gruyter, Berlin, 1989, p. 174) where he obtained some necessary conditions for which six numbers have to satisfy in order to be the dihedral angles of a hyperbolic tetrahedron. We also present a simple proof of the known necessary and sufficient condition for the dihedral angles of Euclidean n-simplexes. |
