GE 01 02. Angles of triangle
Triangle ABC
1. Sum of three angle is 180 degrees or pi radians
2. Each internal angle has an external angle and they are supplementary angles
3. Supplemenary angle of C = angle A + angle B = External angle of angle C
Supplementary angle of C = 180 - angle C
Angle A + angle B = 180 - angle C
Hence Supplemenary angle of C = angle A + angle B
4. Right triangle has one 90 degree angle
5. External angles
External angle of angle A = angle B + angle C

GE 01 07. External angle of angle B = angle A + angle C
Construction
Draw a triangle ABC and let AB be in horizontal direction
Produce AB to D, then angle DBE is external angle of B
AT B draw a line BE parallel to AC
Proof
Since BE parallel to AC
Hence angle EBC = angle C (Alternate angles)
Hence angle DBE = angle A (Corresponding angle)
Hence angle DBC = angle A + angle C
