Given: angle 4. is an exterior angle of the triangle
Prove: angle 4 = measure of angle 1 plus the measure of angle 2.
Two column proof:
Statement 1 says angle 4 is an exterior angle of the triangle. Reason 1 says “given”.
Statement 2 says the measures of angles 1, 2 and 3 added together equal 180 degrees.
Reason 2 says ?
Statement 3 says angles 3 and 4 are a linear pair.”
Reason 3 says?
Statement 4 says angles 3 and 4 are supplementary angles.
Reason 4 says “If two angles form a linear pair, then they are supplementary.”
Statement 5 says measure of angle 3 plus the measure of angle 4 equals 180 degrees.
Reason 5 says ?
Statement 6 says the sum of angles 1, 2 and 3 equal the sum of angle 3 and 4.”
Reason 6 says?
Statement 7 says measure of angles 1 and 2 equal the measure of angle 4
Reason 7?
