the largest angle of a triangle is 3 times the smallest angle. the middle angle is 30 degrees more than the smallest angle. find the number of degrees in each triangle
---------------------------
Let the smallest angle be "x".
Then middle is "x+30"
And largest is "3x"
------------------------
Equation:
x + (x+30) + 3x = 180
Solve for x and evaluate each angle.
