This is a proof that the angles in a triangle equal 180°:

The top line (that touches the top of the triangle) is
running parallel to the base of the triangle.

So:

angles A are the same angles B are the same And you can easily see that A + C + B does a complete rotation from one side of the straight line to the other, or 180°

Let p be a line drown parallel to the side BC of ΔABC.

Now, there are two parallel lines cut by a transversal.

∡A = straight angle (180°)

∡Y₂ + ∡Z + ∡X₂ = 180°

l l ∡Y₁ ≡ ∡Y₂ (alternate interior angles)
l l ∡X₁ ≡ ∡X₂ (alternate interior angles)

∡Y₁ + ∡Z + ∡X₁ = 180°


Note: See the attachment.
