The angle made with an extension of a side and its corresponding adjacent side is the exterior angle.

Therefore, the sum of the interior angle and the exterior angle on a vertex is 180°. That is, an interior angle and an exterior angle are complementary.

Put the pieces of exterior angles of each vertex of the triangle into the right circle.

Now, guess the sum of the exterior angles of a triangle
