Apply angle sum property

  • m+n+40=180
  • m+n=180-40
  • m+n=140

The answer is 140

Answer:

  • m + n = 140

===============

Given

  • Two parallel lines,
  • Included triangle between the parallel lines,
  • Two interior angles of the triangle are m and n,
  • Another angle of 40°.

To find

  • The sum of angles m and n

Solution

As per given, the missing interior angle is corresponding with 40° angle.

Since corresponding angles are equal, the third interior angle of the triangle is 40°.

Sum of three interior angles is 180°:

  • m + n + 40 = 180
  • m + n = 180 - 40
  • m + n = 140
