the angles of triangle are in the ratio 2:3:4 find the measure of each angle in a traingle
Answers
Let angle of triangle are 2x,3x,&4x then
The measure of each angles will be,
- 2x = 2 × 20 = 40°.
- 3x = 3 × 20 = 60°.
- 4x = 4 × 20 = 80°.
hope it helps ☺️☺️
AnswEr :
- The measure of each angle of a triangle is 40°, 60°, and 80° respectively.
⠀
Explanation :
We are given with the angles of a triangle but it has been given in the form of ratio, that is,
- 2 : 3 : 4.
We have to find out the measure of each angle of a triangle
⠀_________________________
Now,
Let us assume that, the measure of each angles is 2x, 3x and 4x respectively.
We know that, if we are given with the three angles of a triangle we have the required formula, that is,
⠀
⠀
→ The sum of all three angles of a triangle is 180°. This statement is known as 'angle sum property of triangle'.
⠀
⠀
Substituting the given values in the formula,
⇒ 2x + 3x + 4x = 180
⇒ 5x + 4x = 180
⇒ 9x = 180
⇒ x = 180/9
⇒ x = 20
⠀
Therefore,
The measure of each angles will be,
⠀
- 2x = 2 × 20 = 40°.
- 3x = 3 × 20 = 60°.
- 4x = 4 × 20 = 80°.
⠀
Hence, the measure of each angle of a triangle is 40°, 60°, and 80° respectively.
