the largest angle of a triangle is six times as big as the smallest .the third angle is 75 .(a) write this information in the form of equation for a the size in degree of the smallest angle (b) solve the equation and so find the sizes of three angles

Answer»

Answer:

a) LARGEST ANGLE of TRIANGLE = 6X

Smallest angle of triangle = x

Third angle = 75°

6x + x + 75° = 180°

b) Largest angle of triangle = 6x = 6 × 15 = 90°

Smallest angle of triangle = x = 15°

Third angle = 75°

Step-by-step explanation:

Largest angle of triangle = 6x

Smallest angle of triangle = x

Third angle = 75°

6x + x + 75° = 180° [Because sum of all the angles is 180°]

7x + 75 = 180

7x = 180 - 75

7x = 105

x = 105/7

x = 15

Largest angle of triangle = 6x = 6 × 15 = 90°

Smallest angle of triangle = x = 15°

Third angle = 75°

Check⇒

90° + 75° + 15° = 180°

180° = 180°

L.H.S = R.H.S

Hence, the answer is correct.
