For a given triangle, sum of the three angles =
180°
As per the diagram,
∠1+∠2+∠3=180°
AD is a straight line and CB stands on it.
Therefore, angle 2 and angle 4 are supplementary.
I.e.
∠2+∠4=180°
Hence, ∠1+∠2+∠3=∠2+∠4
∴ ∠1+∠3= ∠4
In other words, exterior angle is equal to sum of the two interior opposite (remote) angles.
Similarly, we can prove the other 5 exterior angles.
