Whoops, originally thought the sides were 1:2:3, not the angles.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "If the angles are in the ratio 1:2:3, the triangle is a 30-60-90 triangle (by using x + 2x + 3x = 180 --> x = 30). The shortest side has length \"5sqrt%283%29\" so the next larger side is the shortest side times \"sqrt%283%29\" (since the next larger side cannot be the hypotenuse). So the next larger side is 15.
