Question
Is the following statement true and false :
An exterior angle of a triangle is greater than the opposite interior angles.
Options
Ture
False
Solution
An exterior angle of a triangle is greater than the opposite interior angles.
According to exterior angle theorem,
ext .x = ∠CAB + ∠CBA
Since, the exterior angle is the sum of its interior angles.
Thus,
ext.x >∠CAB
ext.x >∠CBA
