<4 <5 <1=180
<5=<3
<4=<2
so
<2 <3 <1=180

anonymous · Answer

It's an essay question I can't draw one, I really don't know how to put it in paragraph form

random231 · Answer

okay i have drawn it for you!

anonymous · Answer

But like how do I turn that into a paragraph?

random231 · Answer

well put it this way:
A line parallal to the base of the triangle is drawn which passes through the opposite vertex. The sum of the angles 1, 4 and 5 is equal to 180 degrees. As angles 4 and 2 |dw:1400504032957:dw| are adjacent angles taking AB as the transversal and angles 5 and 3 are adjacent angles taking AC as transversal <4=<2 and <5=<3.
so <1+<2+<3 = 180.
