Step-by-step explanation:
Angles are in A.P. Let the angles of the triangle be a, a+d, a+2d
Sum of three angles is equal to 180.
a+a+d+a+2d=180
3a+3d=180
a+d=60 ——(1)
Smallest angle = a ; Greatest angle= a+2d
a+2d=5a
d=2a
From (1), a+2a=60
a=20
d=2(20)=40
The measures of the angles of a triangle are in Arithmetic progression and the greatest angle is 5 times the smallest.
We have to find the angles in degree and radians.
Let (a - d) , a and (a + d) be the angles of the given triangle, where (a - d) is smallest and (a + d) is greatest angles of the triangle.
We know,
“The sum of angles of a triangle equals to 180°.”
∴ (a - d) + a + (a + d) = 180°
⇒3a = 180°
⇒a = 60° ...(1)
A/C to question,
Greatest angle = 5 × smallest angle
⇒(a + d) = 5(a - d)
⇒a + d = 5a - 5d
⇒6d = 4a
⇒2a = 3d
⇒2 × 60° = 3d [ From equation (1), ]
⇒d = 40°
Hence angles are ; (60 - 40)° , 60° , (60 + 40)°
= 20° , 60° , 100°
Therefore the angles of triangle are 20° , 60° and 100°
Relation between degree and radian : π = 180°
so, 20° = π/9 radian
60° = π/3 radian
100° = 10π/18 radian
