Question

IM BEGGING PLEASE HELP One angle of the triangle is 30% larger than the other and 36 ° smaller than the third. Find the angles of the triangle.

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  52°, 40°, 88°

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent "one angle". This is 30% larger than "the other", so we have ...

  x = "the other" × (1 +30%)

  x/1.30 = "the other"

If x is 36° smaller than the third, then the third is x+36.

__

The sum of the angles is 180°.

  x + x/1.3 + (x +36) = 180

  x(2 +1/1.3) = 144

  x = 144/(2 +1/1.3) = 52

  x/1.3 = 52/1.3 = 40

  x +36 = 88

The angles of the triangle are 52°, 40°, and 88°.
