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. It is equal to the sum of the two remote interior angles.

If one angle of a triangle measures 50 degrees and another measures 60 degrees, what is the measure of the third angle?

Back

The third angle measures 70 degrees, calculated using the Triangle Sum Theorem: 180 - (50 + 60) = 70.
