What is an exterior angle of a triangle?

Back

An exterior angle is formed by one side of the triangle and the extension of an adjacent side.

State the Exterior Angle Theorem.

Back

The Exterior Angle Theorem states that the measure of an exterior angle is equal to the sum of the measures of the two remote interior angles.

If two angles of a triangle are 50 degrees and 85 degrees, what is the measure of the third angle?

Back

The third angle measures 45 degrees (180 - 50 - 85 = 45).

If the remote interior angles of a triangle are represented as 5y + 3 and 4y + 8, how do you find y if the exterior angle is 146 degrees?

Back

Set up the equation: 5y + 3 + 4y + 8 = 146 and solve for y.
