Correct Answer: $720^{\circ}$
Solution : $\angle$ABC + $\angle$BCA + $\angle$BAC = $180^{\circ}$ ---------------(i) ⇒ $\angle$ACB + $\angle$ACD = $180^{\circ}$ ---------------(ii) ⇒ $\angle$ABC + $\angle$ABF = $180^{\circ}$ ---------------(iii) ⇒ $\angle$BAC + $\angle$EAC = $180^{\circ}$ ---------------(iv) Adding (ii), (iii), and (iv), then subtracting (i) from it, $\therefore$ $\angle$ACD + $\angle$ABF + $\angle$EAC = $540^{\circ}$ – $180^{\circ}$ = $360^{\circ}$ So, the sum of the exterior angles formed on both sides = $2 × 360^{\circ}$ = $720^{\circ}$ Hence, the correct answer is $720^{\circ}$.
