Answer 1

Answer:

D, E, and F

Step-by-step explanation:

✔️Statement D is true:

Rationale: m<4 is more than 90°, while m<2 is less than 90°. Therefore m<4 is greater than m<2

✔️Statement E is true:

Rationale: m<4 is more than 90°, while m<1 is less than 90°. Therefore m<4 is greater than m<1

✔️Statement F is true:

Rationale:

m<4 is an external angle of the triangle.

m<1 and m<2 are interior angles that are opposite to m<4. Therefore, based on the external angle theorem of a triangle,

m<4 = m<1 + m<2
