Is the following statement true and false :

An exterior angle of a triangle is greater than the opposite interior angles.

• Ture

• False

#### Solution

An exterior angle of a triangle is greater than the opposite interior angles.

According to exterior angle theorem,

ext .x = ∠CAB + ∠CBA

Since, the exterior angle is the sum of its interior angles.

Thus,

ext.x >∠CAB

ext.x >∠CBA

Is there an error in this question or solution?
