Given :
In ΔABC ,
• ∠A : ∠B : ∠C = 3 : 2 : 1
• CD ⊥ AC
To Find :
• The value of ∠ECD = ?
Solution :
Let us assume that the ,
- ∠ACB = x
- ∠ABC = 2x
- ∠BAC = 3x
According to the angle sum property of the triangle,
➝ ∠ACB + ∠ABC + ∠BAC=180°
➝ x + 2x + 3x = 180
➝ 6x = 180
➝ x = 30°
So, the angles are :
- ∠ACB = x = 30°
- ∠ABC = 2x = 2 × 30 = 60°
- ∠BAC = 3x = 3 × 30 = 90°
Also, we know about the exterior angle property,
which mean's, sum of the two interior angles is equal to the exterior angle !!
➝ ∠ACE = ∠BAC + ∠ABC
➝ ∠ACD + ∠ECD = 90 + 60
➝ 90 + ∠ECD = 90 + 60
➝ ∠ECD = 60 + 90 - 90
➝ ∠ECD = 60°
The value of angle ECD is 60°.

You should know :
• Angle sum property of triangle is that the sum of interior angles of a triangle is 180°.
• Sum of angles of a triangle is 180°.
Here, in any ΔABC,
- ∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180°
• An exterior angle of a triangle is always equal to the sum of the opposite interior angles !!
