find x if the angle of the triangle are 2x,4xand 6x
Answers
Given :
- Angles of triangle :-
- 2x, 4x and 6x
To find :
- The value of x
Knowledge required :-
- Formula for calculating sum of interior angles of a polygon :-
Sum of interior angles of polygon =
⠀⠀⠀⠀(2n - 4) × 90°
Where,
- n is the number of sides.
Solution :
A triangle has 3 sides, 3 angles.
So,
- n = 3
⠀⠀⠀⇒ 2x + 4x + 6x = (2n - 4) × 90°
⠀⠀⠀⇒ 12x = ((2 × 3) - 4) × 90°
⠀⠀⠀⇒ 12x = (6 - 4) × 90°
⠀⠀⠀⇒ 12x = 2 × 90°
⠀⠀⠀⇒ 12x = 180°
⠀⠀⠀⇒ x = 180°/12
⠀⠀⠀⇒ x = 90°/6
⠀⠀⠀⇒ x = 45°/3
⠀⠀⠀⇒ x = 15°
∴ The value of x = 15°
- First angle = 2x = 2 × 15° = 30°
- Second angle = 4x = 4 × 15° = 60°
- Third angle = 6x = 6 × 15° = 90°

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Verification :
To verify, add all the angles of triangle if their sum is equal to 180° then the value of x is right.
⠀⠀⠀⇒ 30° + 60° + 90°
⠀⠀⠀⇒ 180°
Sum of angles of triangle = 180°
Hence, verified.
=>. First angle of triangle ∆ = 2x
Second angle of triangle ∆ = 4x
Third angle of triangle ∆ = 6x
=>. 2x + 4x + 6x = 180 [Angle sum property]
=>. 12x = 180
=>. x = 180/12
=>. x = 15
Hence, first angle = 2x = 2×15 = 30
Second angle = 4x = 4×15 = 60
Third angle = 6x = 6×15 = 90
