Question
In a right angled triangle MNO, ∠N = 90°, MO is extended to P. If ∠NOP = 128°, find the other two angles of ∆MNO
Solution
Given ∠N = 90°
MO is extended to P, the exterior angle ∠NOP = 128°
Exterior angle is equal to the sum of interior opposite angles.
∴ ∠M + ∠N = 128°
∠M + 90° = 128°
∠M = 128° – 90°
∠M = 38°
By angle sum property of triangle,
∴ ∠M + ∠N + ∠O = 180°
38° + 90° + ∠O = 180°
∠O = 180° – 128°
∠O = 52°
∴ ∠M = 38° and ∠O = 52°
