prove that the sum of the angles of a triangle is 180 Also find the angles of a triangle if they are in the ratio 5:6:7
Answers
Answer:
let ratio be x
5x:6x:7:
Step-by-step explanation:
5x+6x+7x = 180
18x = 180
x = 10
5x 6x 7x
5×10 6×10 7×10
50 60 70
In order to prove that the sum of angles of a triangle is 180, you must know the theorems of angles of a triangle.
We know that, alternate interior angles are of equal magnitude.
This'll help us get the answer. Let us assume a triangle ABC. Now we have to substitute the angles.
∠PAB + ∠BAC + ∠CAQ = 180°. where PQ line parallel to side BC touching vertex A.
∠PAB = ∠ABC & ∠CAQ = ∠ACB BECAUSE alternate interior angles are congruent..
Hence we get, ∠ABC + ∠BAC + ∠ACB = 180° [Proved]
et the angles be 5x, 6x, 7x.
5x + 6x + 7x = 180°
18x = 180°
x = 10°
the angles are 50°, 60°, 70°.
