Algebra.Com's Answer #585937 by mukul76(5)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let the angle B be x. \n" ); document.write( "As per the problem angle A=x+20, \n" ); document.write( "And angle C=x+x+20/2 \n" ); document.write( "A+B+C=180°(angle sum property of ∆) \n" ); document.write( "x+20+x+(2x+20/2)=180° \n" ); document.write( "After solving left hand side we get 4x+40+2x+20. 6x+60 \n" ); document.write( " ----------- = ------=180° \n" ); document.write( " 2. 2 \n" ); document.write( "6x+60=180*2 \n" ); document.write( "6x+60=360 \n" ); document.write( "6x=360-60 \n" ); document.write( "6x=300 \n" ); document.write( "x=300/6 \n" ); document.write( "x=50° \n" ); document.write( "Angle A=x+20=50+20=70° \n" ); document.write( "Angle B=x=50° \n" ); document.write( "Angle C=x+x+20/2=(70+50)/2=120/2=60° \n" ); document.write( "Therefore 70+50+60=180° \n" ); document.write( "Hence proved. \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
