Card 1 of 20. Answer hidden.
Prompt
What is the sum of a triangle's interior angles?
Answer
\(180^\circ\).
Prompt
State the Exterior Angle Theorem.
Answer
An exterior angle equals the sum of the two remote interior angles.
Prompt
What is the relationship between an exterior angle and its adjacent interior angle?
Answer
They are supplementary and total \(180^\circ\).
Prompt
If two sides of a triangle are congruent, what follows?
Answer
Their opposite angles are congruent.
Prompt
State the converse of the Isosceles Triangle Theorem.
Answer
If two angles are congruent, their opposite sides are congruent.
Prompt
What are remote interior angles?
Answer
The two triangle angles not adjacent to the chosen exterior angle.
Prompt
What do matching side ticks mean?
Answer
The marked sides are congruent.
Prompt
A triangle has angles 48° and 77°. Find the third.
Answer
55°.
Prompt
Remote angles are 36° and 69°. Find the exterior angle.
Answer
105°.
Prompt
An exterior angle is 124°. Find its adjacent interior angle.
Answer
56°.
Prompt
An isosceles triangle has vertex angle 70°. Find either base angle.
Answer
55°.
Prompt
If AB = AC, which angles are equal?
Answer
\(\angle B=\angle C\), the angles opposite those sides.
Prompt
What does a vertex-angle bisector do in an isosceles triangle?
Answer
It is perpendicular to the base and bisects the base.
Prompt
Can every triangle angle bisector be assumed perpendicular to the opposite side?
Answer
No; that conclusion needs the isosceles vertex-bisector conditions.
Prompt
What sum do the acute angles of a right triangle have?
Answer
\(90^\circ\).
Prompt
Why can an interior triangle angle not be 180°?
Answer
The other two angles must also be positive, while all three total 180°.
Prompt
What is the fastest exterior-angle check?
Answer
Verify exterior plus adjacent interior is 180° and exterior equals the two remotes.
Prompt
A triangle only looks isosceles. May you set base angles equal?
Answer
No; a statement or congruence marks are required.
Prompt
In an algebraic triangle problem, when should x be substituted back?
Answer
Whenever the question asks for an angle rather than for x.
Prompt
Name four common triangle-angle reasons.
Answer
Angle sum, exterior-angle theorem, straight-angle supplement, and isosceles correspondence.
