yees
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
so, x is called exterior angle
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ook
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
60, and 40 are inside the triangle, and they are far away from x, so they are called 'remote interior angles'
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok

exterior angle theorem :-
exterior angle = sum of two remote interior angles
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
x = 60+40

oooooooh so i just do the same thing as the other triangle add the other two angles to find x? just using a different theorem
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
in the other problem, u have added the two angles, and subtracted from 180. thats called 'sum of interior angles theorem'
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes

in this problem, we simply added the two interior angles. this is called 'exterior angle theorem'
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
here, x = 100
the triangle is acute, and uve used 'exterior angle theorem'
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok

thanks
