Question 1045779: One angle in a triangle has a measure that is three times as large as the smallest angle. The measure of the third angle is 25 degrees more than that of the smallest angle. Find the measure of the LARGEST angle. Answer by ewatrrr(24785) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let x, 3x and x+25 represent the angles
x + 3x + (x+25) = 180°
5x = 155°
x = 31°
31°, 93° , 56° are the angles: 93° the LARGEST
CHECKING
31° + 93° + 56° = 180° CHECKS!
