Given :-
To prove :-
- Sum of interior angles of a ∆ is 180° .
Construction :-
- Draw a line MCN parallel to AB .
- Extend line AB to K .
Proof :-
In ∆ ABC , we have ,
- [tex]\angle[/tex] BAC + [tex]\angle[/tex] BCA = [tex]\angle[/tex] CBK
As sum of two interior angles of a triangle is equal to the opposite exterior angle .
Also ,
- [tex]\angle[/tex] ABC + [tex]\angle[/tex] CBK = 180°
( linear pair )
Hence from above two ,
- [tex]\angle[/tex]ABC + [tex]\angle[/tex] BAC + [tex]\angle[/tex] ACB = 180°
Hence Proved !
