Algebra.Com's Answer #474938 by stanbon(75887)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! In triangle ABC, the angle C is six times as large as angle A. The measure of angle B is 60 greater than that of angle A. Find the measure of the angles. \n" ); document.write( "Below is what I got out of reading the above question. \n" ); document.write( "C= 6x \n" ); document.write( "B= 60+x \n" ); document.write( "A= x \n" ); document.write( "How do I put this together into an equation? \n" ); document.write( "------------- \n" ); document.write( "Equation: \n" ); document.write( "6x + 60+x + x = 180 degrees \n" ); document.write( "8x = 120 \n" ); document.write( "x = 15 \n" ); document.write( "------ \n" ); document.write( "A = 15 degrees \n" ); document.write( "B = 75 degrees \n" ); document.write( "C = 90 degrees \n" ); document.write( "===================== \n" ); document.write( "Cheers, \n" ); document.write( "Stan H. \n" ); document.write( "==================== \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
