equal 180°.
Prove/explain why the exterior angle theorem of a
triangle.
8.G.5.
Use informal arguments to establish facts
about the angle sum and exterior angle of
triangles, about the angles created when
parallel lines are cut by a transversal, and the

triangle so that the sum of the three angles
appears to form a line, and give an argument
in terms of transversals why this is so.
