Question

In a triangle one angle measures 36 degrees and the other two angles are in the ratio of 3 to 5. What is the measurement of each angle

Answer 1

Answer:

54 degrees and 90 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

If you add up all the angles in a triangle it will equal 180 degrees. So first, subtract 36 from 180

180 - 36 = 144

If the other two angles have a ratio of 3 to 5 then you need to divide 144 by 8 because 3 + 5 = 8

144/8 = 18

Then multiply 18 by 3 and 5. This will give us the measurement of the other two angles.

18 x 3 = 54

18 x 5 = 90

90 + 54 + 36 = 180
