To find the angle measures of the given
Answer to Problem 3C
The angles measures are
The triangle is a scalene triangle.
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Ratio of the angle measures in a triangle is given as
Calculation:
Let the angle measures be 3x, 5x, 12x.
The sum of all the angles of a triangle is 180. Hence,
Adding all the x on the left side of the equation
Divide both the sides by 20
This will give the value of
Hence the angle measures are
First angle is 3x ,multiply3 with 9
Second angle 5x ,multiply 5 with 9
Third angle is 12x ,multiply12 with 9
As all the angle measures are different, which implies that all the sides of the triangle are of different lengths. Hence the triangle is Scalene triangle.
Conclusion- The angle measures of the triangle are
