The three angles of a triangle are in the ratio 1:2:1. Find all the angles of the triangle.
➣ Ratio of the three angles of a triangle = 1:2:1
➣ Let the first angle = x
➣ Let the second angle = 2x
➣ Let the third angle = x
➣ All the angles of a triangle
➪ By using Angle Sum Property of triangle
➪ Sum of angles in a triangle = 180°
⇒ x + 2x + x = 180°
⇒ 4x = 180°
⇒ x =
⇒ x = 45°
➣ First angle of the triangle = x = 45°
➣ Second angle of the triangle = 2x = 2 × 45 = 90°
➣ Third angle of the triangle = x = 45°
➦ So, the three angles of the triangle are 45°, 90° and 45°
Step-by-step explanation:
➡By using Angle Sum Property of triangle
➡Sum of angles in a triangle = 180°
⇒ x + 2x + x = 180°
⇒ 4x = 180°
X=180°
⇒ x = 45°
➤ First angle of the triangle = x = 45°
➤ Second angle of the triangle = 2x = 2 x
45 = 90°
➤ Third angle of the triangle = x = 45°
➡So, the three angles of the triangle are 45°, 90° and 45°
