Question 31541: One angle in a triangle measures twice the smallest angle, whereas the largest angle is six times the smallest angle. Find the measures of all three angles.

smallest angle = x the second angle is = 2x and trhe largest angle is = 6x
therefore the sum of all three angles is x+2x+6x=180 or 9x=180 or x=20,2x=40,6x=120
20+40+120=180 or 180=180
