Your method is completely correct. The first term will be 6 and each subsequent term can be obtained by adding 6 to the previous one, meaning the common difference is 6. The number of terms is given by the highest number that is divisible by 6 and dividing it by 6; that is 996/6 = 166
Then we simply apply the formula for arithmetic sequence sum:
S = n/2 [2a₁ + (n - 1)d]
S = 166/2 [ 2(6) + (166 - 1)6]
S = 83,166

The sum of the angle measures of any triangle is 180 degrees. Angle 2 is twice the measure of angle 1. Angle 3 is 15 degrees les

allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

Angle 1 = 39, Angle 2 = 78 , Angle 3 = 63

Step-by-step explanation:

78/2 = 39

(Angle 2/2 = Angle 1)

78 - 15 = 63

(Angle 2 - 15 = Angle 3)

39 + 78 + 63 = 180

(Angle 1 + Angle 2 + Angle 3 = 180)
