* Estimated Time: 40 minutes
 +
* Materials/ Resources needed: Laptop, geogebra file, projector and a pointer.
 +
* Prerequisites/Instructions, if any:
 +
# The students should know a triangle and its basic elements.
 +
# They should know interior and exterior angles of a triangle.
 +
# They should know that sum of angles along a straight line is 180 degrees.
 +
* Multimedia resources: Laptop
 +
* Website interactives/ links/ Geogebra Applets:
 +
* Process (How to do the activity):
 +
# The teacher can move the 'explain slider' to show how the sum of opposite interior angles equals to external angle.
 +
* Developmental Questions (What discussion questions):
 +
# Identify the interior angles of this triangle.
 +
# What are exterior angles ?
 +
# Name the exterior angle from the figure.
 +
# Name its two opposite interior angles.
 +
# What is the measure of the marked exterior angle?
 +
# What is the sum of two opposite interior angles?
 +
# What can you infer ?
 +
* Evaluation :
 +
# Reason out as to why external angle is equal to sum of opposite interior angles of a triangle.
 +
* Question Corner:
 +
# Try to prove external angle theorem using linear pair concept and angle sum property of a triangle
