Exterior Angles (Revisited)

TRIANGLE: Move any of the LARGE POINTS anywhere you'd like!
1.
What seems to be true about a triangle's exterior angles? Describe what you see.
2.
Suppose the [b][color=#1e84cc]blue angle measures 120 degrees[/color][/b] and the [color=#ff00ff][b]pink angle measures 140 degrees[/b][/color]. [br][b][color=#9900ff][br]What would the measure of the purple angle be? [/color][/b]
[b][color=#0000ff]Note:[/color][/b][br]For the polygons that follow (quadrilateral, pentagon, hexagon), these applets will work best if the polygon is kept [b]CONVEX[/b]. If you don't remember what this term means, [url=https://www.geogebra.org/m/knnPDMR3]click here for a refresher[/url].
