Answer»
The measure of an angle of a triangle are in the ratio 5:6:7
➠ 5x ⚊⚊⚊⚊ ⓵
➠ 6x ⚊⚊⚊⚊ ⓶
➠ 7x ⚊⚊⚊⚊ ⓷
Also we KNOW that sum of all angles of triangle is 180°
So,
➜ 5x + 6x + 7x = 180
➜ 18X = 180
➜
➨ x = 10
⟮ Putting x = 10 in ⓵ ⟯
➜ 5x
➜ 5(10)
➨ 50
⟮ Putting x = 10 in ⓶ ⟯
➜ 6x
➜ 6(10)
➨ 60
⟮ Putting x = 10 in ⓷ ⟯
➜ 7x
➜ 7(10)
➨ 70°
∴ The angles are 50° , 60° , 70°
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Verification
Sum of all angles of a triangle is 180°
50° + 60° + 70° = 180°
