Proof: By Euclid
(related to Corollary: Similar Triangles)
- By Prop 1.32, the sum of all angles in a plane triangle is $180^\circ.$
- This holds for any two triangles in the plane.
- By hypothesis, the first triangle has sum of angles $\alpha+\beta+\gamma_1=180^\circ$ and the second triangle the sum $\alpha+\beta+\gamma_2=180^\circ.$
- Therefore $\alpha+\beta+\gamma_1=180^\circ=\alpha+\beta+\gamma_2,$ or $\gamma_1=\gamma_2.$
