one of the angle of a triangle is 120 and the other two angles are equal find the measure of the equal angle
Answers
Question:One of the angle of triangle is 120°and the other two angles are equal.Find the measure of the equal angle?
Answer:
30° each
Given:
A triangle ABC in which one angle of triangle is120° and other two angles are equal
To find:
Measure of the equal angles
Solution:-
Let the other two angles be x {as both are equal}
Then
120°+x+x=180°
120°+2x=180°
2x=180-120
2x=60
x=30°
_______________
The measure of the equal angles=30°
_________________________
☆Verification☆
120°+30°+30°=180°{sum of a triangle}
180°=180°
The angles of the triangle are 120°, 30° and 30°.
Given -
One Angle = 120°
The Measure of other 2 angles is same
To find -
The Measure of the Remaining angles
Solution -
Let the remaining two angles be as y, as the measure of the angles is same.
According to the Angle sum Property of Triangle ;
Sum of all angles in a triangle is 180°
As y = 30°, both the angles are 30°
The angles of the triangle are 120°, 30° and 30°.
Check if the sum of the angles is 180° or not.
LHS = RHS
The angles of the triangle are 120°, 30° and 30°.
