In a triangle one angle is 3 times as large as another.The measure of the third triangle is 105 degrees greater than that of the smallest angle. Find the measure of each angle.
---
smallest angle: x
2nd: 3x
3rd: x+105
-----------
Equation:
x + 3x + x+105 = 180
5x = 75
x = 15 degrees (smallest angle)
3x = 45 degrees (2nd angle)
x+105 = 120 degrees (3rd angle)
