One angle of a triangle is 78degree and the other angles are in the ratio 7:10.find their measures
Answers
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:Let ABC be the triangle such that angle A is 60
o
.
In addition, let angle B and C are x and 2x respectively.
∠A+∠B+∠C=180
o
⇒ 60
o
+x+2x=180
o
⇒ 3x=180
o
−60
o
⇒ x=
3
120
o
⇒ x=40
o
Therefore,
∴ ∠B=40
o
∠C=2×40
o
=80

So, other angles are 40

E x P l a n a t i o n : Question states that one angle of a triangle is 78° and the Other angles of the triangle are in the ratio of 7 : 10. & we're asked to Calculate these angles.
Let the other two angles be 7x and 10x respectively.
Therefore,
- First angle = 7x
- Second angle = 10x
- Third angle = 78°
⠀
✇ Now, According to the ASP ( Angle Sum ProPerty ) of the Here:
★ ⠀∠X + ∠Y + ∠Z = 180°⠀ ⠀⠀[Angle Sum Property]
⠀
⇥⠀7x + 10x + 78° = 180
⠀
⇥⠀17x = 180° – 78°
⠀
⇥⠀17x = 102°
⠀
⇥⠀ x = 102⁄17
⠀
⇥⠀ x = 6°
⠀⠀━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Therefore,
- First angle, 7(6) = 42°
- Second angle, 10(6) = 60°
- Third angle, 78°
⠀
❝ Hence, the angles are 42°, 60° & 78° respectively. ❞
