Proof: Angle Addition Theorem
Let's prove the following theorem:
if point X lies in interior of ∠ABC, then m∠ABC = (m∠ABX) + (m∠XBC)
    
    
Proof:
  
      
      Given
      
    
    
      
  
  
| 1 | point X lies in interior of ∠ABC | 
|---|
| # | Claim | Reason | 
|---|---|---|
| 1 | ((m∠ABX) + (m∠XBC) < 180) or ((m∠ABX) + (m∠XBC) = 180) | if point X lies in interior of ∠ABC, then ((m∠ABX) + (m∠XBC) < 180) or ((m∠ABX) + (m∠XBC) = 180) | 
| 2 | m∠ABC = (m∠ABX) + (m∠XBC) | if ((m∠ABX) + (m∠XBC) < 180) or ((m∠ABX) + (m∠XBC) = 180), then m∠ABC = (m∠ABX) + (m∠XBC) |
