Solution

In the given ΔABC, an exterior angle and its interior opposite angles are in the ratio 4:5.

Let us take,

Now using the property, “exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of two opposite interior angles”

We get,

Thus,

Also, using angle sum property in ΔABC

Thus,

Therefore, the correct option is (a).
