Question 1052429: The measure of one acute angle of a right triangle is three times the measure of the other acute angle.Find the measures of the angles. Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The two other angles add to 90 degrees.
Let one by x and the other 3x.
3x+x=90
4x=90
x=90/4=22.5 degrees
3x=67.5 degrees. Those are the angles.
