Find the measure of the each of the angles.

Question

Use the fact that the sum of the angles in a triangle is 180^o for this question.

One angle in a triangle has a measure that is three times as large as the smallest angle. The measure of the third angle is 45^o more than that of the smallest angle.

Answer 1

3s + 45 +s + s = 180

5s = 135

s = 27 degrees = smallest angle

other 2 angles are 3(27) = 81 and 45+27 = 72 degrees
