You first have to know that the measure of the three angles of a triangle= 180
add the terms and equal them to 180
2x+1 + 3x-3 =9x= 180
14x-2 = 180
14x= 182
x=13 This is not what you are looking for, you need to
substitute 13 in the original measures
2 (13) +1= 27 degrees
3(13) -3= 36 degrees
9 (13) = 117 degrees
therefore the smallest angle is 27 degrees
if you add all three angle measure it will = 180 degrees
Hope this helps you
If a bag contains 4 red marbles, 3 blue marbles, and 7 green marbles and a marble is randomly selected from the bag, what is the probability that it is blue? P=3/(3+4+7)=3/14 because each of 14 marbles is equally likely to be drawn.
