Algebra.Com's Answer #193918 by oberobic(2304)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! We know the sum of the interior angles for all triangles is 180 = A + B + C. \n" ); document.write( "We also are told: \n" ); document.write( "B = 5A \n" ); document.write( "C = 4A-14 \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( "A + 5A + 4A-14 = 180 \n" ); document.write( "10A = 194 \n" ); document.write( "A = 19.4 \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( "B = 5A = 5(19.4) = 97 \n" ); document.write( "C= 4(19.4) - 14 = 63.6 \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( "We can check by computing the sum to see if it is 180. \n" ); document.write( "19.4 + 97 + 63.6 = ? \n" ); document.write( "19.4 + 97 + 63.6 = 180. \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( "So the three angles are: \n" ); document.write( "A = 19.4 \n" ); document.write( "B = 97 \n" ); document.write( "C = 63.6 \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( "Done \n" ); document.write( " |
