First, solve for each of the angles. Since it is a right triangle, one of the angles is 90 degrees. Knowing that the sum of the angles of a triangle are always equal to 180 degrees, you can write an equation for the triangle.

Angle1+ angle2+angle3=180.

Which means that 90+(x+15)+2x=180.

After finding the value of x, which is 25 in this case, solve for each angle.

X+15=25+15=40.

2x=25*2= 50

The value of the smallest angle is 40 degrees.

RSB [31]

This can be solve by first solving the proportionality constant

Number electic outlets rewired is directly proportional to time spent

4 = (1 ½)a

Let be the proportionality constant

A = 8/3

O = (8/3)(7.5)

o = 20 outlets will jamal rewired if he works for 7.5 hrs
