hlo mate here's your answer
Theorem 1: Angle sum property of triangle states that the sum of interior angles of a triangle is 180°.
Proof:
Consider a ∆ABC, as shown in the figure below. To prove the above property of triangles, draw a line
PQ
←
→
parallel to the side BC of the given triangle.
Since PQ is a straight line, it can be concluded that:
∠PAB + ∠BAC + ∠QAC = 180° ………(1)
Since PQ||BC and AB, AC are transversals,
Therefore, ∠QAC = ∠ACB (a pair of alternate angle)
Also, ∠PAB = ∠CBA (a pair of alternate angle)
Substituting the value of ∠QAC and∠PAB in equation (1),
∠ACB + ∠BAC + ∠CBA= 180°
Thus, the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°.
Exterior Angle Property of a Triangle Theorem
Theorem 2: If any side of a triangle is extended, then the exterior angle so formed is the sum of the two opposite interior angles of the triangle.
In the given figure, the side BC of ∆ABC is extended. The exterior angle ∠ACD so formed is the sum of measures of ∠ABC and ∠CAB.
