Answer:

The Three options are

1. m∠5 + m∠6 = 180° ...........Linear Pair

2. ∠ 2+ ∠ 3 = ∠ 6.................Exterior angle Property of Triangle

3. m∠2 + m∠3 + m∠5 = 180° .....Triangle Sum Property

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider Δ ABC with Exterior angles as

∠ 1 , ∠ 4 ,and ∠ 6

Exterior angle Property of Triangle:

An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the opposite interior angles.

For Exterior ∠ 1 we have

∠ 1 = ∠ 5 + ∠ 3 .................Exterior angle Property of Triangle

Similarly,

For Exterior ∠ 4 we have

∠ 4 = ∠ 5 + ∠ 2.................Exterior angle Property of Triangle

Similarly,

For Exterior ∠ 6 we have

∠ 6 = ∠ 2 + ∠ 3.................Exterior angle Property of Triangle

Triangle Sum Property:

Ina triangle sum of the measures of angles is equal to 180°

∴ m∠2 + m∠3 + m∠5 = 180° .....Triangle Sum Property

Linear Pair:

The measure of a straight angle is 180 degrees, so a linear pair of angles must add up to 180 degrees.

∴ m∠5 + m∠6 = 180° ...........Linear Pair
