A triangle has an angle that measures 95�. The other two angles are in a ratio of 3:14. What are the measures of those two angles?
***
let x=one of the two angles
let y=other angle
x+y=180-95=85˚
y=85-x
x/y=3/14=x/(85-x)
14x=3(85-x)
14x=255-3x
17x=255
x=15
y=85-x=70
measures of those two angles: 15˚ and 70˚
