Hi,
One angle in a triangle has a measure that is three times as large as the smallest angle.
The measure of the third angle is 45 degrees more than that of the smallest angle.
smallest angle: x
2nd angle: 3x
3rd angle: x + 45
Question states***
x + 3x + (x+ 45) = 180°
5x = 135°
x = 27° , smallest angle. largest is 81°
and (3rd angle is 72° )
27° + 81° + 72° = 180°
