The type of angles used to help prove that the sum of the measures of the interior angles of a triangle is always 180° are alternate interior angles.

This proof typically involves drawing a line parallel to one side of the triangle through the opposite vertex, which creates alternate interior angles that help establish the relationship between the angles of the triangle and allow for the conclusion that their sum is 180°.
