Answer:
the answer is 40
Step-by-step explanation:
let the angles be 2x,3x,4x..
ATQ,
2x+3x+4x=180 (sum of 3 angles in a triangle is 180)
or, 9x=180
or,x=180/9
thus, x=20.
since the smallest angle is 2x..
Smallest angle=2×20=40.

Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
- The angles of the triangle are in ratio 2 : 4 : 3.
To Find:
- What is the measure of the smallest angle?
Solution: Let x be the common in given ratios.
∴ Ratio will be :-
- ∠1 : ∠2 : ∠3 = 2x : 4x : 3x
• We know that the sum of all three angles of a triangle is of 180° •
∠1 + ∠2 + ∠3 = 180°
2x + 4x + 3x = 180°
9x = 180°
x = 180°/9
x = 20°
∴ The angles will be
- ∠1 = 2x = 2(20°) = 40°
- ∠2 = 4x = 4(20°) = 80°
- ∠3 = 3x = 3(20°) = 60°
Hence, The smallest angle is 2x = 40°.

→ ∠1 + ∠2 + ∠3 = 180°
→ 40° + 80° + 60° = 180°
→ 180° = 180° { LHS = RHS }
