Example 1 mXYZ + mYZX + mZXY = 180° mXYZ + 40 + 62 = 180 mXYZ + 102 = 180 mXYZ = 78° 2. Find m YWZ. 1. Find m XYZ mYXZ + mWXY = 180° 62 + mWXY = 180 mWXY = 118°

A corollary is a theorem whose proof follows directly from another theorem. Here are two corollaries to the Triangle Sum Theorem.

Example 2 The measure of one of the acute angles in a right triangle is 63.7°. What is the measure of the other acute angle? HINT: DRAW A PICTURE m A + m B = 90° 63.7 + m B = 90 m B = 26.3°

Interior and Exterior
11
Remote Interior Angles The remote interior angles of 4 are 1 and 2.

Example 3 Find m B. m A + m B = m BCD 15 + 2x + 3 = 5x – 60 2x + 18 = 5x – 60 78 = 3x 26 = x m B = 2x + 3 = 2(26) + 3 = 55°
14
Example 4 Find m ACD. m ACD = m A + m B 6z – 9 = 2z + 1 + 90 6z – 9 = 2z + 91 4z = 100 z = 25 m ACD = 6z – 9 = 6(25) – 9 = 141°

Example 5 Find m P and m T. P TP T 2x 2 = 4x 2 – 32 –2x 2 = –32 x 2 = 16 So m P = 2x 2 = 2(16) = 32°. Since m P = m T, m T = 32°.
17
CHECK UP 1.The measure of one of the acute angles in a right triangle is 56°. What is the measure of the other acute angle? 2. Find m ABD. 3. Find m N and m P.
