Angles of Triangles Lesson #2 Pg. 19
Key Vocabulary Triangle Interior Angle Exterior Angle A figure formed by three line segments that intersect only at their endpoints Interior Angle An angle inside a polygon Exterior Angle The angle formed by one side of a triangle and the extension of the adjacent side Remote Interior Angles The angles of a triangle that are not adjacent to a given exterior angle

Image Definition (Exterior and Interior Angles) One interior angle and the exterior angle that share the adjacent side are a “Linear Pair” (180°) Interior Exterior
Exterior Angles of a Triangle Interior Exterior The measure of an exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the measures of its two remote interior angles (NOT ADJACENT)
Exterior Angles of a Triangle The measure of an exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the measures of its two remote interior angles A 1 B C
Example Suppose . Find the measure of . K 2 1 4 L 5 M
