Q5 of 28 Page 84

Find the value of x° and y° from the following figures:

Theorem 2:

If a side of a triangle is produced, the exterior angle so formed, is equal to the sum of the two interior angle.



C = B (Alternate interior angles)


x° = 42°


In Δ CDE


Ext. E = C + D


82° = 42° + y°


y° = 82° - 42°


y° = 40°
