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 10 degrees more than that of the smallest angle. Find the measure of the LARGEST angle.

Answer 1

Explanation:

x + x + 10 + 3x = 180

5x + 10 = 170

5x = 170

x = 36°

3(36)= 108° the largest angle
