Question 1010755: three angles are described as fallows: angle B is half the size angle A. The measure of angle C is equal to one less than two times the measure of angle B. The sum of angle A and angle B is 114 degrees. can these three angles form a triangle?

A= 2B
C= 2B-1
-------------------------------------
B+2B= 114
3B= 114
B= 38
----------------------------
A= 2B= 38*2= 76
C= 2B-1= 76-1= 75
38+76+75= 189
These angles cannot form a triangle, since the sum of the angles of ANY triangle = 180 degrees
