Question

In a right angle triangle the other two angles are in the ratio 2:3.Find the angles..

(Show your statement).​

Answer 1

Answer:

let the ratios be x so, numbers are 2x and 3x

2x+3x+90=180

5x +90 =180

5x=180-90

5x =90

x=90/5

x=18

so, numbers are 36 and54

Answer 2

Answer:

By angle sum property, ∠A+∠B+∠C=180

∘

Given that △ABC is rightangled at A

∴∠A=90

∘

∴∠B+∠C=180

∘

−∠A=180

∘

−90

∘

=90

∘

Given that ∠B:∠C=2:3

Let ∠B=2x and ∠C=3x

⇒2x+3x=90

∘

⇒5x=90

∘

⇒x=

5

90

∘

=18

∘

∴∠B=2×18

∘

=36

∘

and ∠C=3×18

∘

=54

∘

Hence the other two acute angles are 36

and 54
