Question

The three angles of a triangle are: x degrees, 3x degrees and 5x degrees. Find the angles of the triangle and name the kind of triangle based on its angles.

Answer 1

Answer:

20°, 60° , 100°

(scalene triangle)

Step-by-step explanation:

given, the angles of a triangle as x,3x and 5x

=> x + 3x +5x = 180°

=> 9x = 180°

=> x = 180° / 2

=> x = 20°

so, the values of the angles are 20°, 3(20°) , 5(20°)

=> 20°, 60° , 100°

from the values, it is obvious that all 3 angles are different.

=> all 3 sides will also have different measures

=> the triangle is a scalene triangle.
