Triangle Sum Theorem 1 3 2 m<1 + m<2 + m<3 = 180° The sum of the measures of the interior angles of a triangle is 180o.
Property of triangles 60º 90º 30º + 60º 180º 30º 90º The sum of all the angles equals 180º degrees.
Property of triangles 60º 60º 60º 60º + 180º 60º 60º The sum of all the angles equals 180º degrees.
What is the missing angle? 70º 70º ? ? + 180º 70º 70º 180 – 140 = 40˚
What is the missing angle? 90º ? 30º ? + 180º 90º 30º 180 – 120 = 60˚
What is the missing angle? ? 60º 60º ? + 60º 60º 180º 180-120 = 6060˚
What is the missing angle? ? 30º 78º ? + 78º 30º 180º 180 – 108 = 72˚
Find all the angle measures 35x 45x 10x 180 = 35x + 45x + 10x 180 = 90x 2 = x 90°, 70°, 20°
Ex.2: Classify the triangle shown in the diagram by its sides and angles.
Angles • When the sides of a polygon are extended, other angles are formed. • The original angles are the interior angles. • The angles that form linear pairs with the interior angles are the exterior angles.
Theorem 4.2 Exterior Angle Theorem: The measure of an exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the measures of the two nonadjacent interior angles.
Ex.4: Find . Ex.5: Find the measure of in the diagram shown.
A corollary to a theorem is a statement that can be proved easily using the theorem. • Corollary to the Triangle Sum Theorem: The acute angles of a right triangle are complementary.
Ex.6: The tiled staircase shown forms a right triangle. The measure of one acute angle in the triangle is twice the measure of the other. Find the measure of each acute angle.
Ex.7: Find Ex.8: Find the measure of each interior angle of ∆ABC, where
Ex.9: Find the measures of the acute angles of the right triangle in the diagram shown.
