What is an exterior angle of a triangle?

Back

An exterior angle of a triangle is formed by one side of the triangle and the extension of an adjacent side.

State the Exterior Angle Theorem.

Back

The Exterior Angle Theorem states that the measure of an exterior angle is equal to the sum of the measures of the two non-adjacent interior angles.
