hi dear
6x+7x+8x= 180.
21x= 180
x= 60/7
so three angles are
6×60/7=51.4°
7×60/7=60°
8×60/7=68.5

Given:
The angles of a triangle are in the ratio of 6:7:8 .
To Find:
The measure of each angle of the triangle.
Angle Sum Property:
The sum of all the interior angles of a triangle is 180°.
Assumption:
Let the angle be x.
Solution:
6x + 7x + 8x = 180°
or, 21x = 180°
or, x = 180/21
or, x = 60/7
Answer:
6x = 6 ( 60/7 ) = 51.4° = 51° (approx.)
7x = 7 ( 60/7 ) = 60°
8x = 8 ( 60/7 ) = 68.5° = 69° (approx.)
To Check:
51° + 60° + 69° = 180°
or, 180° = 180°
LHS = RHS
Hence, Verified.
