They equal the supplement of the interior angle it is adjacent to. (180-int. angle)
E.g: the exterior angles of an equilateral triangle are each equal to 120 degrees.

Exterior angles are the angles formed when a side of a polygon is extended, and they are adjacent to the interior angle at that vertex. In a polygon with n sides, there are n exterior angles, one at each vertex. The sum of the exterior angles of any polygon is always 360 degrees.
_\_________ .a\b _c\d________ .....\ When a line crosses 2 lines, 8 angles are formed. Four are exterior angles - outside the 2 lines, and four are interior angles. These are labelled a, b, c, d in the diagram. a & d are alternate interior angles because they alternate from one side of the intersecting line to the other; b & c are also alternate interior angles. They are also known as "Z-angles" because the top parallel line, the transversal and the bottom parallel line which define the two angles for the letter Z (or a distorted version of it). If angle a = angle d (in which case angle b = angle c as well), the 2 lines drawn horizontally are parallel. If alternate interior angles are equal, the 2 lines are parallel. OR If you know the lines are parallel, then alternate interior angles must be equal. Not the greatest diagram; please ignore the ... but even a lousy diagram helps. And no, you don't use lower case letters for angles but there shouldn't be any confusion.
The exterior of the object is characterized by its gray color and a wrinkled, convoluted texture.
The phosphate groups are on the exterior of the DNA molecule. They form the backbone of the DNA molecule and are involved in binding to other molecules in the cell.
