Each of the two equal angles of a triangle is twice the third angle.Find the angles of the triangle.
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
let the third angle of the triangle be x
therefore,
Angle 3=x
Since, Angle 1 and 2 are twice the third angle....
Therefore,
Angle 1=Angle2=2x
Angle 1 + Angle 2 + Angle 3 = 180 °
(Angle Sum Property of a triangle)
2x + 2x+ x= 180°
5x=180°
x=36°
Therefore,
Angle 1 = Angle 2= 2x = 2*36°=72°
Angle 3= x = 36°
Therefore all the angles are 72° ,72° ,36°
Step-by-step explanation:
(1step) -let the third side of the triangle be "x".
(2step)-each of the two equal angles of the triangle are 2x and 2x respectively.
(3 step)- therefore the equation is :- 2x+2x+x is equal to 180.
(as the sum of all the sides of a triangle is 180 degrees).
(4step)- therefore 5x equal to 180 degrees.
(5 step)- therefore X equal to 180 divided by 5 which is equal to 36.
(6step)-therefore all the angles of the triangle are: -
first angle:- 2x that is 36 into 2 which is 72.
second angle:- 2x that is 36 into 2 which is 72.
third angle:- x that is 36.
