Given: Sides $AB$ and $AC$ of $\triangle ABC$ are extended to points $P$ and $Q$ respectively. Also, $\angle PBCAB$.Solution:We know that, The sum of the measures of the angles in linear pairs is always $180^o$This implies, $\angle ABC+\angle PBC=180^o$This implies, $\angle ABC=180^o-\angle PBC$In a similar way, we get, $\angle ACB+\angle QCB=180^o$This ...
