Given :-

  • A triangle ABC .

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 ,


  • \angle BAC +
    \angle BCA =
    \angle CBK

As sum of two interior angles of a triangle is equal to the opposite exterior angle .

Also ,


  • \angle ABC +
    \angle CBK = 180°

( linear pair )

Hence from above two ,


  • \angleABC +
    \angle BAC +
    \angle ACB = 180°

Hence Proved !
