I think you mean vertex angle.
\n" ); document.write( "The angles of the triangle sum to 180.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"5t-18%2B3t%2B3t=180\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"11t-18=180\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"11t=198\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"t=18\"$
\n" ); document.write( "So then,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"3t=54\"$
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( " $\"5t-18=90-18=72\"$
\n" ); document.write( "54-54-72 triangle.
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
