Given: Three angles of a triangle are (3x +3)°, (3x)°, and (3x + 6)°.
To find The value of x
Solution: On the basis of the angles are categorized into three types and are Acute angle, Obtuse angle, and Right-angled triangles.
- The triangle whose internal angles are less than 90° is referred to as the acute triangle.
- The triangle whose internal angles are more than 90° but less than 180° is referred to as the obtuse triangle.
- The triangle whose one angle is equal to 90° is referred to as the acute triangle.
Now we know that the sum of the three internal angles of a triangle is equal to 180°, so from above we get,
∴(3x +3)°+(3x)°+ (3x + 6)°=180° [∵ (3x +3)°, (3x)°, (3x + 6)° are given angles]
⇒(3x+3x+3x)+3+6=180°
⇒9x+9=180°
⇒9x=(180-9)°
⇒9x=171°
⇒x=(171/9)°
⇒x=19°
Hence, 19° is the value of x.
The value of the first angle (3x +3)° is ((3×19)+3)° that is 60°.
The value of the second angle (3x)° is (3×19)° that is 57°.
The value of the third angle (3x +6)° is ((3×19)+6)° that is 63°.
