Open in App
Solution

Let the exterior angles of the triangle be x, y and z respectively.

Then by exterior angle property, interior angles of the triangle will be (180x)​, (180y)​​, (180z)​​

Using angle sum property of a triangle,

(180 - x) + (180 - y) + (180 - z) = 180

540 - (x + y + z) = 180

Therefore, x + y + z = 360
