Algebra.Com's Answer #134338 by nerdybill(7384)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! one angle of a triangle is 30 degrees larger than the smallest angle, and the third angle is four times as large as the smallest angle. find the angle of the smallest angle \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( "First, we know that for any triangle, the sum of the interior angles is 180. \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( "Let x = smallest angle (angle two) \n" ); document.write( "then from: \"one angle of a triangle is 30 degrees larger than the smallest angle\" \n" ); document.write( "x+30 = angle one \n" ); document.write( "and from: \"the third angle is four times as large as the smallest angle\" \n" ); document.write( "4x = angle three \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( "x + x+30 + 4x = 180 \n" ); document.write( "30 + 6x = 180 \n" ); document.write( "6x = 150 \n" ); document.write( "x = 25 degrees (smallest angle) \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
