An exterior angle of a triangle is of measure 70° and one of its interior opposite angle is of measure 25°. Find the measure of the other interior opposite angle.
Answers
As we know that in a triangle, the exterior angle is equal to the sum of opposite interior angles.
So,
According to the question,
70° = 25° + Interior angle
Interior angle = 70° - 25°
Interior angle = 45°
Hence the other interior opposite angle is 45°
An exterior angle of a triangle is of measure 70° and one of its interior opposite angle is of measure 25°. Find the measure of the other interior opposite angle.
➣ An exterior angle of a triangle = 70°
➣ One of the opposite interior angle of the exterior angle = 25°
➣ The other interior opposite angle
➪ Let the other interior opposite angle = x
➪ Sum of interior opposite angles of a triangle is equal to the exterior angle of triangle
➪ Exterior angle of a triangle = Sum of its interior opposite angle
⇒ 70° = 25° + x
⇒ x = 70° - 25°
⇒ x = 45°
➦ So, the measure of the other interior opposite angle is 45°
