show that the sum of the exterior angles
of angle ABC is 360
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider AABC in which ZA=1, 2B=2 and ZC Let the exterior angles of A, B and C be za, zb
= 3
and zc respectively.
Recall that sum of angles in a triangle is 180* That is 21+22+43 = 180°
From the figure, we have
21+28=180" [Linear pair]
22+b=180° [Linear pair]
23+2c=180" [Linear pair]
Add the above three equations, we get 21+za+z2+zb+23+2c=180° +180° + 180°
→ (21+ 22 +23) + 2a + 2b + zc=540"
→ 180°+ 2a + 2b + c = 540*
→ 2a + 2b +2c=540" - 180*=360" Thus sum of exterior angles of a triangle is 360⁰.
Answer:
Solution:-
Let the angles in ΔABC ∠A= ∠1, ∠B= ∠2,and ∠C= ∠3 and the exterior angles of A,B and C be ∠a, ∠b and ∠c respectively.
We know sum of all the angles in a triangle =180 degrees
= ∠1+ ∠2+ ∠3=180 degrees
From the figure,
∠1+ ∠a=180 degrees [Linear pair]
∠2+ ∠b=180 degrees [Linear pair]
∠3+ ∠c=180 degrees [Linear pair]
Adding the above equations,
= ∠1+ ∠a+ ∠2+ ∠b +∠3+ ∠c=180 degrees+180 degrees
=( ∠1+ ∠2+ ∠3)+ ∠a+ ∠b +∠c=540 degrees
=180 degrees + ∠a+ ∠b+ ∠c=540 degrees
= ∠a+ ∠b+ ∠c=540 degrees -180 degrees
= ∠a+ ∠b+ ∠c=360 degrees
Therefore, sum of exterior angles of a triangle =360 degrees
