\r\n" );
document.write( "y is an exterior angle of the triangle.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "An exterior angle of a triangle is the sum of \r\n" );
document.write( "the two remote interior angles, that is, the \r\n" );
document.write( "two angles that are farthest away from the \r\n" );
document.write( "exterior angle y.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "80° and 50° are the two remote interior\r\n" );
document.write( "angles of the triangle because they are the ones\r\n" );
document.write( "farthest away from y. therefore y is the sum of \r\n" );
