Question

In a triangle, an exterior angle at a vertex is 95° and its one of the interior opposite angle is 55°, then the measure of the other interior angle is

Options

  •  55°

  •  85°

  •  40°

  •  9.0°

MCQ

Solution

In the given ΔABC, ∠DAC = 95° and ∠A = 55°

Now, according to the property, “exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of two opposite interior angles”, we get,

∠A + ∠B = ∠ACD

55° + ∠B = 95°

        ∠B = 95° - 55°

              = 40°

So, ∠B = 40°
