Question 1039195: I am working with Triangle Exterior Angle Theorems and was confused by this problem. I also need to prove it in a two column proof form. Can you help me?

The measure of each exterior angle of a triangle equals the sum of the measures of its two remote interior angles: m<1 = m<2 + m<3


Thank you.

For line-by-line proof see the lesson Sum of the interior angles of a triangle in this site.

It is not a two-column proof, although (!).

But I advise you to learn line-by-line proof first, before writing the two-column.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Euclid wrote everything line-by-line.

Thousand years people learned and wrote Math line-by-line and knew everything.

In scientific math journals/magazines professionals write line-by-line only.
Nobody writes in two-columns.

In my generation people learned and wrote Math line-by-line and knew everything.

Now students are touched to write in two-columns and know nothing.

It is how contemporary USA math education system works now.
