Given:
The measurement of the angles of a triangle are 3b,2b,and 4b.
To find:
The smallest angle.
Solution:
According to the angle sum property, the sum of all angles of a triangle is 180 degrees.
[Angle sum property]
Divide both sides by 9.
Now,
Therefore, the smallest angle is 40 degrees.
The Pythagorean theorem is the idea that the sum of the two legs which are both squared is equal to the hypotenuse's length squared.
*<em>look at the image I attached for a better explanation</em>
By looking at the picture, we are missing the leg's length, and by using the Pythagorean theorem, we get the equation
Thus the <u>missing side length is 12 cm</u>
Hope that helps!
