Given:
The figure of a triangle.
To find:
The measure of angle 1.
Solution:
Exterior angle theorem: In a triangle, the measure of an exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of two opposite interior angles.
Using Exterior angle theorem, we get
[tex]101^\circ =31^\circ +m\angle 1[/tex]
[tex]101^\circ -31^\circ =m\angle 1[/tex]
[tex]70^\circ =m\angle 1[/tex]
Therefore, the measure of angle 1 is 70 degrees.
