<u>Given</u> :
• In ∆ JKL , all the three interior angles have equal measures.
<h2><u>To calculate</u>:</h2>
• Measure of 1 ( Exterior angle )
<h2><u>Calculation</u>:</h2>
Here, we can solve this question in two ways.
- By exterior angle property of ∆.
- By linear pair.
______________________________
<u>Let us calculate the measure of interior angles first</u>.
→ Let the measure of each interior angle be x.
As all the interior angles of the triangle are equal,
[ By angle sum property of ∆ ]
Therefore, measure of each interior angle of the triangle is 60°.
<h3><u>By exterior angle property of ∆ </u>:</h3>
As we know that,
- Sum of two opposite interior angles of ∆ = Exterior angle
⇒ Hence, measure of angle 1 is 120°.
<h3><u>By linear pair</u>:</h3>
→ 1 + J = 180°
→ 1 + 60° = 180°
→ 1 = 180° - 60°
→ 1 = 120°
⇒ Hence, measure of angle 1 is 120°.
