If the side BC of Δ ABC is produced on both sides, then write the difference between the sum of the exterior angles so formed and ∠A.
Given that,
BC produced on both sides
We know that,
∠A + ∠ABC + ∠ACB = 180o (i)
∠ABD = ∠A + ∠ACB (Exterior angle theorem) (ii)
∠ACE = ∠A + ∠ABC (Exterior angle theorem) (iii)
Adding (ii) and (iii), we get
∠ABD + ∠ACE = ∠A + (∠A + ∠ACB + ∠ACB)
∠ABD + ∠ACE = ∠A + 180o
(∠ABD + ∠ACE) - ∠A = 180o
Thus, between the sum of the exterior angles so formed and ∠A is 180o.
