 CONCEPTS RELATED TO EXTERIOR
ANGLE INEQUALITY THEOREM
1. ANGLES
Angles are formed when two lines intersect at a
point. Vertex is a common endpoint that is shared by
the two rays.
2. Remote Interior Angles
Remote interior angles of a triangle are the angles
that do not form linear pair with the exterior angle.
3. Exterior Angle
Exterior angle is an angle that forms a linear pair with
one of the angles of the triangle.
4. Exterior Angle Inequality Theorem
The measure of an exterior angle in a triangle is the
sum of the measures of the remote interior angles.

 BERMUDA TRIANGLE
Situation: You’ve been accepted to join an
expedition to the Bermuda Triangle. You leave
from Texas travelling across the Gulf of Mexico
toward the Bermuda Triangle. You can barely
contain your excitement when the Captain asks
if you want to steer the ships. Before you do,
though he needs you to find the measure of the
angle made by the ship, Miami and San Juan. If
the remote interior angles of the Bermuda
Triangle are 64 Find the value of x,
