Triangle Angle-Sum Theorem 3-10

The sum of the measures of the angle of a triangle is 180.

Example #1 So we have

A+B+C=180 Using the angle measures we were given, we can substitute those values into our equation to get.

120+34+mC=180

mC=26

(1) Find the measure of ∠C.

. Using the diagram, we are given that mA= 120 mB=34

Example #2 (2) Find the

value of x in the diagram below.

mS=61 mT=73 mP=mQ=x

mS+mT+mSRT=180

61+73+mSRT=180 mSRT= 46 SRTQRP thus, QRP=46 P+Q+46=180 x+x+46=180 2x+46=180 P=Q=67

Key Concepts The angle formed by one

side of a triangle with the extension of another side is called an exterior angle of the triangle.

Key Concepts

Exterior angles get their name because they lie on the outsides of triangles.

The two angles that are not adjacent, or next to, the exterior angle of the triangle are called remote interior angles.

Triangle Exterior Angle Theorem 3-11 The Measure of

each exterior angle of a triangle equals the sum of the measures of its two remote interior angles.

Example #31) Find the measures of ∠1 and ∠2 in the figure below.

Solution mS=42, and mA=30 mS+mA+1=180 42+30+1=180 72+1=180 1=108 mS+mA= 2 42+30=2 2=72

Example #42) Find m∠B. Solution

R=93, and JEB=132 B=9x+3 R+B=JEB 93+(9x+3)= 132 96+9x=132 9x=36 x=4 B=39
