Question

A home has a triangular backyard. The second angle of the triangle is 4 degrees more than the first angle. The third angle is 26 degrees more than three times the first angle. Find the angles of the triangular yard.

Answer 1

66.4, 70.4, 223.2

Explanation:

make the equation x + (x+4)+ 3x+24=360

then it's 5x+28=360

subtract 28 on both sides

5x=332

then divide by 5 on both sides

x=66.4

then, just plug in the numbers
