In a triangle angle A is x plus 10, angle B is 3x plus 5 ,angle C is 2 x plus 15
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
In a triangle ∆ABC,
angle A = x + 10
angle B = 3x + 5
angle C = 2x + 15
angle A + angle B + angle C = 180°
x + 10 + 3x + 5 + 2x + 15 = 180°
6x + 40 = 180°
6x = 180° - 40
6x = 140
Given :-
In a triangle ΔABC -
∠A = ( x + 10 )°
∠B = ( 3x + 5 )°
∠C = ( x + 15 )°
To Find :-
Angles of the triangle.
Solution :-
❍ To calculate the angles of the triangle we must know the angle sum property of triangles ::
Sum of all angles of a triangle = 180°

Finding the value of x :-
- By substituting the values in the angle sum property of triangles.
⤳ ∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180°
⤳ ( x + 10 )° + ( 3x + 5 )° + ( 2x + 15 )° = 180°
⤳ x + 10° + 3x + 5° + 2x + 15° = 180°
⤳ 6x + 30° = 180°
⤳ 6x = 180° - 30°
⤳ 6x = 150°
⤳ x = 150°/6
⤳ x = 25°
Finding the angles :-
- By substituting the value of x in the values given to us.
⤳ ∠A = ( x + 10 )°
⤳ ∠A = 25° + 10°
⤳ ∠A = 35°
⤳ ∠B = ( 3x + 5 )°
⤳ ∠B = ( 25° × 3 ) + 5°
⤳ ∠B = 75° + 5°
⤳ ∠B = 80°
⤳ ∠C = ( 2x + 15 )°
⤳ ∠C = ( 2 × 25° ) + 15°
⤳ ∠C = 50° + 15°
⤳ ∠C = 65°
⠀⠀⠀━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
- Henceforth, the angles of the triangle are 35°, 80° and 65°
