Question 1067915: The measure of the smallest angle of a triangle is one half the measure of the second angle. If the measure of the largest angle is six times the measure of the smallest angle, what are the measures of the angle?

x  smallest
y  middle
z  largest

The neat way is to use the first two equations to substitute for y and z in terms of x, in the interior-angle sum equation.

and go from there.
