Exterior angle of a triangle
• A triangle has a three interior
angles.
• An exterior angle of a triangle is
an angle which forms a linear pair
(adjacent) with one of the
triangle’s interior angle.
• Remote interior angles are two
interior angles not adjacent to the

Angle-side relationship
theorem
Angle of a triangle
• The angle of a triangle can be
put in order by comparing the
sides.
•The smallest angle is always
opposite to the smallest side.
•The largest angle is always
opposite to the largest side
Side of a triangle
• The side of a triangle can be put
in order by comparing the angles.
•The shortest side is always
opposite to the smallest angle.
•The longest side is always
opposite to the largest side
