Statement Reasons
1. m∠2 = 40º, m∠1 = 145º 1. Given
2. m∠1 = m∠2 + m∠3 2. The measure of the exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the measures of the two remote interior angles
3. 145 = 40 + m∠3 3. Substitution Property
4. 145 - 40 = m∠3 4. Subtraction Property
5. 105º = m∠3 5. Arithmetic

I saw figure and angle 1 is an exterior angle; therefore angle 1 = sum of remote interior angles 2 & 3.
Therefore angle 3 is 105 degrees.
