All exterior angles of any polygon add up to 360 degrees because angles on a straight line add up to 180 degrees as for example an equilateral triangle has 3 equal interior angles of 60 degrees and so 180-60 = exteror angle of 120 degrees.

Therefore 3 times 120 = 360 degrees.

Prove that sum of exterior angle of a triangle is 360 degree?

because INTERIOR ANGLE 180 AND the exterior angle 180 so 180+180=360

How do you prove an isosceles triangle?

an isisceles triangle is a triangle with atleast two sides congruent.


How do you prove angle sum property of a triangle?

draw a triangle & its exterior angle on one side and name he exterior angle as4 and interior opp. angle as 1 and 2 and name the third angle as 3 now we know exterior angle is equal to the sum of interior opp. angle so,angle1+angle2=angle 4 we also know angle3+angle4=180(linear pair) NOW from this 2 equation angle1+angle2+angle3=180


How can proving two triangles congruent can help prove parts of the triangle congruent?

When you prove a triangle is congruent to another, it can help you prove parts of the triangle congruent by checking the ratio between all sides and angles. Thank you for asking


How do you prove a right angle triangle?

You cannot prove "a right angle triangle". You may or may not be able to prove statements about right angled triangles but that will depend on the particular statement.


Why is AAA not an appropriate conjecture for triangle congruence?

It does not necessarily prove congruence but it does prove similarity. You can have a smaller or bigger triangle that has the same interior angles.

How do you prove that isosceles triangles have three equal sides?

If You Prove An Isosceles Triangle To Have Three Equal Sides. You Now Have Disproved It As Being An Isosceles Triangle. So Even If You Could You Would Now Have An Equilateral Triangle. I Just Can`t See A Way This Can Be Done.
