Let the angles be,
2x, 3x and 5x
_____________________
In a triangle, the sum of all angles is equal to 180°
So,
2x + 3x + 5x = 180
10x = 180
x = 18
____________________
To find measures of all angles, we substitute the value of x,
- 2x = 2(18) = 36
- 3x = 3(18) = 54
- 5x = 5(18) = 90
____________________
The angles are,
36°, 54° and 90°
