Answer:

The true statements are:

m∠ 3 + m∠ 4 = 180° ⇒ 1st

m∠ 2 + m∠ 4 + m∠ 6 = 180° ⇒ 2nd

m∠ 2 + m∠ 4 = m∠ 5 ⇒ 3rd

Explanation:

* Look to the attached diagram to answer the question

# m∠ 3 + m∠ 4 = 180°

∵ ∠ 3 and ∠ 4 formed a straight angle

∵ The measure of the straight angle is 180°

∴ m∠ 3 + m∠ 4 = 180° ⇒ true

# m∠ 2 + m∠ 4 + m∠ 6 = 180°

∵ ∠ 2 , ∠ 4 , ∠ 6 are the interior angles of the triangle

∵ The sum of the measures of interior angles of any Δ is 180°

∴ m∠ 2 + m∠ 4 + m∠ 6 = 180° ⇒ true

# m∠ 2 + m∠ 4 = m∠ 5

∵ In any Δ, the measure of the exterior angle at one vertex of the

triangle equals the sum of the measures of the opposite interior

angles of this vertex

∵ ∠ 5 is the exterior angle of the vertex of ∠ 6

∵ ∠2 and ∠ 4 are the opposite interior angles to ∠ 6

∴ m∠ 2 + m∠ 4 = m∠ 5 ⇒ true

# m∠1 + m∠2 = 90°

∵ ∠ 1 and ∠ 2 formed a straight angle

∵ The measure of the straight angle is 180°

∴ m∠1 + m∠2 = 90° ⇒ Not true

# m∠4 + m∠6 = m∠2

∵ ∠ 4 , ∠ 6 , ∠ 2 are the interior angles of a triangle

∵ There is no given about their measures

∴ We can not says that the sum of the measures of ∠ 4 and ∠ 6 is

equal to the measure of ∠ 2

∴ m∠4 + m∠6 = m∠2 ⇒ Not true

# m∠2 + m∠6 = m∠5

∵ ∠ 5 is the exterior angle at the vertex of ∠ 6

∴ m∠ 2 + m∠ 6 = m∠ 5 ⇒ Not true
