Exterior angles hands-on introduction: teacher-led and student-led steps to cut, tear and glue triangle corners
Teacher guide for running the optional discovery lesson
Decorate this Triangle: two triangles with angles x, y and z marked by dashed arcs for students to color and cut out
Prep before the lesson; two copies per sheet
Exterior angles of triangles: students glue a triangle on an extended side and complete the Exterior Angle Rule blanks
Teacher-led version of the handout, without steps
Exterior angles handout with Steps 1-4: cut off angles x and y, fit them in the exterior angle at z, then fill in the rule
Student-led version for working at their own pace
Exterior angles notes: fill-in definitions of interior, exterior and remote interior angles, then prove the theorem
Guided notes to complete together during the lesson
Exterior angle practice: students solve for exterior and missing remote interior angles from labeled triangle diagrams
Guided practice after the notes, with a worked Example 2
Practice Applying the Exterior Angle Theorem: six true/false angle statements and four multiple-choice figure problems

About This Product


This resource was developed to partially meet the requirements of the 8th Grade Geometry standard below:

CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.8.G.A.5

Use informal arguments to establish facts about the angle sum and exterior angle of triangles*, about the angles created when parallel lines are cut by a transversal, and the angle-angle criterion for similarity of triangles

*This resources ONLY explores the bold portion of the standard above.
