one of the exterior angle=120°
opposite interior angles are in ratio 5 and 3.
5x+3x=180°
8x=180°
X=180/8
X=22.5
extra=120.
120=5x+3x
120=8x
X=15

Step-by-step explanation:
Exterior angle = 120° (given)
Interior opposite angles = 2: 3
Let the common ratio be x.
So, interior opposite angles are 2x and 3x .
We know that,
By exterior angle property of a triangle
Exterior angle is equal to sum of interior opposite angles
⟹ 120° = 2x + 3x
⟹ 120° = 5x
⟹ 120°/5=x
⟹ 24=x
So, ∠ 1 = 2 × 24 = 48°
So, ∠ 2 = 3 × 24 =72°
