Question 540522: IN TRIANGLE ABC, THE MEASURE OF ANGLE B IS 32 DEGREES MORE THAN THREE TIMES THE MEASURE OF ANGLE A. THE MEASURE OF ANGLE C IS 58 DEGREE MORE THAN THE MEASURE OG ANGLE A. FIND THE MEASURE OF EACH ANGLE? WHAT IS THE MEASURE OF ANGLE A?

Let the measure of angle A (in degrees) be x.
The measure of angle B is 32 degrees more than (add 32 to what follows) 3 times the measure of angle A. Three times the measure of angle A is 3x, so the measure of angle B (in degrees) is 3x+32.
The measure of angle C is 58 degrees more than (add 58 to what follows) the measure of angle A. So the measure of angle C (in degrees) is x+58.
You must know that the sum of the measures of the 3 angles in a triangle is 180 degrees. So,
We know that those parentheses are unnecessary because we can associate and shuffle the terms added without change (commutative and associative properties), so --> --> --> --> -->
The measure of angle A is 18 degrees.
The measure of angle B (in degrees) is
The measure of angle B is 86 degrees.
The measure of angle C (in degrees) is
The measure of angle C is 76 degrees.
